“We are absolutely thrilled with the design and the finish of the canopy. Our pupils are so excited and can’t wait to start learning outside.”
The £60,000 canopy was designed by Cassidy and Ashton architects. It was built by Parkinsons of Preston.
Alana Frith, chairman of the governors, said: “It is wonderful to see the improvement. Children’s learning will certainly be enhanced through all the learning areas that staff have created.”
