Covers helps Southway Primary School create ‘Woodland Wonderland'

Covers Timber & Builders Merchants in Bognor Regis has supplied a local primary school with materials to help them improve their library.

 

The company, which is based at Station Yard in the town, donated a selection of timber to Southway Primary School to help them complete a new ‘Woodland Wonderland’ area in its library. The area features seating areas in the shape of tree stumps and a boat.

Mike Wood, Principal of Southway Primary School, said:

“We absolutely love reading at Southway and look for every opportunity to get the children enjoying their books. Every class will visit the library each week to enjoy reading and improve their reading skills.

“We have our own librarian and the books that can be borrowed are all on our Accelerated Reader system so that we can help our students progress very effectively. For those children not ready to read yet, we've also invested in Tonie Boxes, which allow the children to independently access audio books to enjoy.

“A huge thank you to local retailers, including Covers, who provided the materials so we could make this vision a reality for our children.”

Paul Allwright, Depot Manager of Covers Bognor Regis, added:

“We are delighted to have helped Southway Primary School and provided them with the timber they needed to create their Woodland Wonderland area. We hope their pupils will enjoy using it for many years to come.”
