NORTH Cerney Primary Academy have developed a new partnership with Jackson-Stops & Staff Estate Agents which will benefit pupils.

The partnership began with Jackson-Stops funding a trip to see Cinderella at Cheltenham’s Everyman Theatre.

Head teacher Jane Burr said: “For our pupils it was a great opportunity to see live theatre with all the excitement and drama, some expected, some not!

“Writing from a real experience helps many children who find it difficult to write creatively and so we are all very grateful to have this trip supported in this way by Jackson-Stops.”

Pupils drew pictures of their experience as a thankyou to Jackson-Stops, with staff picking their three favourites to be displayed in the Cirencester office.

Jackson-Stops & Staff Cotswold director David Parris said: “Jackson-Stops has been in the Cotswolds for nearly 90 years and it’s rewarding to us to be able to support our local communities.”
