Report written by Sarah W
As GoodGymers there's nothing we like more than starting a project and seeing it through to the end.
So last night's task was particularly satisfying, as we finished painting the Year 2 cloakroom at Holy Trinity Lamorbey Primary School - transforming the original scuffed yellow walls to a clean cream, over three separate visits.
As we rollered and brushed, there was plenty of chatter with Jane, the school's vice principal. For added entertainment, Jane showed us her favourite entry from a recently-unearthed school punishment book. Dating from December 1932:
Frightening small children with a dead rat: 2 strokes on the hand.
Eek, hopefully the only strokes on our record are our painting brush strokes!
We'll be back helping at the school next month - check the sessions listing and come and join us!
Committed to ensuring that each child’s primary school days are exciting and rewarding, so that they develop a love for learning.
