New playground equipment

Tesco teamed up with Groundwork to launch its Bags of Help Funding initiative, which sees grants of up to £5,000, £2,000 and £1,000 being awarded to local projects all raised from the 5p carrier bag levy.

Millions of shoppers voted in stores up and down the country for their preferred project and Drapers Mills Primary Academy is delighted to announce it has bagged £5,000 from the scheme.

The £5,000 funding has enabled us to purchase a new play boat and train for the children to use during the school day; they couldn’t wait to play in them imagining they were Captains, sailors and train drivers.

Thank you to everyone who voted for us.
