PARTY TIME: Class Swale pupils whose birthdays had fallen during the Covid-lockdown sing Happy Birthday
PARTY hats, games, balloons and cakes were the order of the day as a dale school held a very special celebration.
Staff at Gainford Primary School decided to dedicate a day to all those pupils whose birthdays had fallen during the lockdowns. Headteacher Chris Riley said: “So many of our pupils have missed out on their own birthday party or have missed going to their friends’ parties, outings or sleepovers, I decided to let the whole school have a party day.
“It has certainly given the children something to look forward to. Every child has worked so hard since their return in September – They certainly deserve a treat.”
