New mini-bus for North Newton Primary School


TREMENDOUS fundraising efforts at a village school have helped secure a brand new minibus.
North Newton Primary School has bought a 17-seater minibus, having raised £24,000 in less than a year.

Head teacher David Gliddon paid tribute to parents, children and members of the community who rallied behind the fundraising drive, in particular Andrew O'Connor, parent and governor, who chaired the minibus fund.

The following organisations and events were among those which helped coin in the cash: City Plumbing, 3 Peaks Challenge, Newt Fest, Maunsel House, EDF Energy, Sedgemoor District Council's Community Fund, Somerset Community Foundation, Readathon, Duck Race, 100 Club, Wroth Charity.

The minibus is used to provide free transport for weekly swimming sessions in Taunton, sporting events, theatre and educational trips, and residential visits.

The school has a second minibus, which means a whole class can be taken out without the need to hire extra transport.

I am Gopi Singh, When we first observed about our trip to Kashmir, we were a little doubtful because the cost was so low. We believed it may be too excellent to be real. However, we were pleased to discover out that it was everything we had predicted for and more. 12 seater Tempo Traveller on rent in Delhi condition was very wonderful that we hired, than we expected, our resort in Srinagar was the best resort that I have ever remained at! And I have visited the globe and been to many top quality resorts. I don't know how you kept the journey cost so low! Keep up the low costs and great services. I can't delay to book my next trip with you Ghoomloo travel!
