Youngsters at Melvich Primary School and Early Learning Centre were given a boost with the delivery of hampers packed with learning resources for them to use at home.
The hampers were funded by Melvich Community Council after a bid was put in from the school. Money totalling £1299 was awarded and the school bought stationery, books and craft items along with a personalised Chromebook case, hand-sanitiser bottle and face covering.
Depute head teacher Jane MacKintosh said: “We are extremely grateful to Melvich Community Council for awarding us this huge amount of money to support our learners.
"The school and the community council share a strong partnership and we work together to benefit the children within our community.
"I also would like to thank the staff within the school who gave up their time during these very busy weeks to order and pack the hampers. We have received excellent feedback from the parents.”
