Parish Council make a Community Grant to support the Buckshaw Primary School Art/History Project
9th of May, 2022
Buckshaw Primary School are hoping to start a whole school project in April on local history including Astley Hall. It will involve the children researching an aspect of our local history and producing four pieces of artwork that would be displayed on the outside walls around school. This will be a great way to engage the children in History, Geography and Art giving them an opportunity to learn about their local area.
The total cost of materials is approximately £410 which included eight wooden boards, paint, and varnish. In addition, the school have made enquiries regarding an artist to assist them with the design.
The Parish Council agreed to make a Community Grant of £500 to support the Buckshaw Primary School Art/History Project.
