December 2017 Community Grant - East Allington Primary School

Quarterly community grant


Our first quarterly community grant goes to East Allington Primary School for the purchase of a polytunnel.

Tom Pether, Head Teacher has been working with staff to develop infrastructure for children to be able to extend their learning outdoors.

The school is planning to use the tunnel to give the children the opportunity to learn all year round in a teaching space where they can develop maths, science and team building skills. It will also provide healthy food to be used in the school kitchens.

The Rotary panel of judges who decide how the grants should be used, meet each of the five short-listed grant applicants. The decision was “difficult” with good cases being put forward by all, said Rotarian Tim Patterson.

The primary school was selected for a £750 grant because of the wide range of benefits available to the pupils.
