Astley has continued its support of Harlow Green Primary School by welcoming the winners of its latest design competition to its Team Valley headquarters for a behind-the-scenes tour and certificate presentation.
Following the success of an earlier Road Safety sign design competition, students were invited to create graphics for nine designated play zones across the school, including the Reading Gazebo, Construction Zone and Traditional Sports area.
After reviewing entries from pupils across all year groups, Astley’s Board selected the winning designs, with the successful students invited to visit the signmaker’s facility to learn more about the business and the careers available within the industry.
The winning designs will now be manufactured and installed at the school, helping pupils identify the different activity areas while encouraging imaginative and active play.
James Mavi, Managing Director of Astley, said:
“It was another incredibly difficult decision for the Board, as we received so many fantastic entries from talented students across all year groups. The creativity, effort and quality on display made selecting the winners no easy task.
“Our team thoroughly enjoyed welcoming the students to our facility and we’re now looking forward to bringing their ideas to life for the whole school to enjoy.”
Leighanne Softley, Assistant Head at Harlow Green Primary School, added:
“The children thoroughly enjoyed their visit to Astley and have not stopped talking about it since. It was an engaging and inspiring experience, and a wonderful example of how local businesses can support schools through meaningful educational engagement.”
As part of its ongoing commitment to the local community, Astley team members will also be returning to the school through the company’s paid volunteer day initiative, helping to enhance the outdoor learning environment at Harlow Green’s Forest School.
