Parents dig in to create new play area for pre-school children

PRE-SCHOOL pupils have been jumping for joy about a new play area.

Children from Jumping Beans Pre-School, held at the Youth and Community Hall, High Street, Bean, have benefitted from the outdoor play area after a £2,000 grant.

Parents spent hours digging trenches for climbing frames and planting flowers as part of the four-week project.

The play area is full of recycled materials such as tyres for the children to climb on and a picnic table made out of a wooden barrel.

Money for the improvements came from charity Learning Through Landscapes.

Nursery manager Karen Hastings said: "The children planted seeds for our plant area and parents donated tyres for swings. It really brought everybody together."
