In November we were contacted by the widow of a former pupil of Stanhope Barrington C of E Primary School. Mr Neesham was a pupil here in the 1920s, and although he had lived in Manchester for many years, he still fondly remembered his childhood home at Stanhope and the time he spent at Stanhope Barrington.
Recently, his widow kindly donated £1,500 to the school, which will be used to install a new trim trail in the Early Years Unit, as the existing one has been removed to prepare for new and improved equipment.
Our grateful thanks go to Mrs Neesham for her thoughtfulness and generous gift. We are certain that our young children will enjoy using the equipment in the near future and that they will make their own wonderful memories of their time at Stanhope Barrington as a result of this donation.
