Pupils at St Nicholas Primary School in Bromham are enjoying digging in their outdoor area after raising money to improve it.

As part of their art and science studies the 32 class 1 pupils, aged four and five, took part in a sponsored treasure hunt organised by teacher Sian Kilkenny to find different materials around the home, raising nearly £200.

Together with a donation of £50 from Whitehall Garden Centre near Chippenham the money has bought a log roll for the outdoor area and when the weather improves the youngsters will be planting shrubs.
