Pupils Dig in to Help the Elderly
Kind-hearted Q3 Academy students were able to give back to their local community today by clearing driveways on wilderness lane.
Many residents have been unable to clear their driveways themselves during the prolonged spell of freezing temperatures.
The day proved to be such a success that it may now be repeated whenever the wintry weather strikes.
Strategic Director Mrs Mellors and principal Mrs Badyal joined the students, who are in all year groups at the Academy, on the clean-up. Mrs Mellors said: "I have never seen such enthusiasm from the students.
"It was a very successful project and helped spread a little community spirit," she added. "The residents were all very appreciative.
"This was just our way of giving back to the community and helping out our neighbours," Mrs Mellors said.
