Contributing towards construction of an outside shelter for the children at URC Preschool and Nursery

We’re really pleased that our Community Fund has been able to contribute towards the construction of an outside shelter that will allow the children at URC Preschool and Nursery to learn outside - come rain or hot sunshine! ☀️ 🌧️. The Community Fund also contributed towards the cost of erecting replacement fencing to enhance the security of pupils at the school. Heather Nye, a member of the Community Fund, presented our plaque to Sarah Ward (PTA) and Lorraine Robinson (School Manager) at their annual sports day accompanied by Colin Brooker, the Secretary of the Community Fund, with a great turnout of children and parents at the presentation.

"We are incredibly grateful to the Harpenden Trust for the contribution towards the gazebo and new fence. The gazebo has already been used a lot during the recent sunny weather and will continue to provide a wonderful space for the Preschool for many years to come.”  Sarah Ward, PTA
