Local children praised by Police for creating large banner thanking key workers
Police have praised a group of community-spirited pupils for making this large banner thanking keyworkers.
The pupils of Brent Knoll Primary School created the colourful banner which has been installed outside and simply states: “Thank you key workers. Keep safe.”
Burnham-On-Sea Police said two of their team spotted the banner and wanted to thank the pupils.
“PC Tracey Jones and PCSO Sam Piers would like to say a big ‘thank you’ to the children at Brent Knoll School for their lovely sign and on behalf of all key workers. It really is appreciated,” said a spokesperson.

Nailsea School has joined the Wessex Learning Trust to enable staff to share teaching and learning expertise.
The school, in Mizzymead Road, is the 14th to join the Cheddar-based multi-academy trust, and the second secondary school - alongside Kings of Wessex Academy in Cheddar.
This partnership will enable staff across the trust to share expertise and work more efficiently.
A number of collaborations have already begun with teachers sharing best practice across departments including in science and English.
Gavin Ball, chief executive of the Wessex Learning Trust said: “We welcome Nailsea School to our multi-academy trust family, we encourage our schools to be at the centre of their community and raise aspirations and achievement.
A NEW pre-school, set to cost around £140,000, ‘landed’ at a primary school in Brent Knoll last Friday (December 4). The classroom - a modular unit which travelled from Hull - came in two halves and was lifted into place at Brent Knoll Primary School. The building should be complete by December 18, allowing the staff members time to furnish the school before January 5 - when it will officially open. Hayley Richens, who already looks after the reception class, will be running the pre-school, alongside three new members of staff. Chris Burman, headteacher at Brent Knoll Primary School, said he was looking forward to the opening.
