‘Crofton for Kids’

‘Crofton for Kids’ videos now available to view.

During the past few months something a little different has been going on at Crofton Beam Engines. Children from four local primary schools, St Katharine’s C of E Primary School, Great Bedwyn C of E School, Burbage Primary School and Easton Royal Academy have partnered with us in our “Crofton for Kids” grant project to create four unique videos about Crofton for Kids.

Whitney Cawley, Learning and Community Engagement Officer, said: “The children’s enthusiasm and ownership in this project has been fantastic. Each school’s topic video is unique, explaining Crofton to kids by kids. We are so grateful for the support and partnership between staff, children and volunteers.
