CHILDREN from a Sytchampton school have been helping launch its new website.

Sytchampton Endowed First School pupils showed their parents the new site in the school’s ICT suite. Online visitors can take a virtual-tour of the school and features information about extra-curriculum activities and before and after-school care.

Aidan Cartwright, 6, who attends the school, said: “I really like it. The pictures of the teachers are fun as they are not just photographs but pictures the children have drawn of them too.

“There are links to other websites too, which my mum likes as she knows I’m visiting websites which are OK for me.”

Acting headteacher, Gill Deakin, added: “We are delighted with the new website.

“It really highlights the fantastic facilities but I think it also captures our family spirit and the welcoming, purposeful and successful school we have. We are an outstanding school and this is an excellent way we can let more people find out about us.

“The new website is for everyone. It gives current parents more information about what their children have been doing all day and gives parents looking for the right school for their child a great insight into what we offer.”
