Children in Tickenham have been making the most out of a new playground.

Tickenham Primary School has spent thousands of pounds over the past few years on new outdoor play areas.

The school’s headteacher Tristan Merriam said: “Thanks so much once again to our parents and volunteers.

“We already have a stunning location for a primary school and extra money for even more facilities all helps.

“This really is one of the very best locations to have a primary school.”

The Tickenham School Association also recently raised £171 at a movie night which will go towards further improvements to the playground.
