New outdoor trail at Berwick school thanks to Freemen funding

Trustees have given a substantial sum of money to schools located in what was the ancient Borough of Berwick to comply with the Guild Charter and Holy Trinity First School has used its funding to create an outdoor ‘Trim Trail’, with a variety of equipment at varying heights and difficulties suitable for all pupils.

Headteacher Nick Shaw thanked the Freemen for their generosity and added: “The School Council members worked with school staff to research and decide what should be included in the design, which has been fully assessed for risk.”

Captain Jim Evans of the Guild, who opened the trail in the presence of fellow trustees and the whole school, said: “I am delighted to open this adventure trail, which will be enjoyed by generations of children at the school.”
