Support for new Learning Hub at Wood End Primary School

The Community Fund of the Harpenden Trust were very pleased to contribute towards the building of a new Learning Hub at Wood End Primary School. The Learning Hub includes a new library for which provides a lovely learning environment and an attractive facility for children of all ages. The funding we provided went towards the purchase of the books and our support has been acknowledged by the school by stamping each book thanking the Harpenden Trust.

Headteacher, Richard Boulton, said, “We are delighted with our new resource, and it will definitely further enhance reading for pleasure at Wood End. Our full time librarian has ensured that children of all ages have a plethora of quality literature to choose from. We could not have achieved this without the constant support of FoWE (Friends of Wood End), our parents, governors and staff, and a significant contribution for books from The Harpenden Trust.”
