Nursery helps with festive spirit

A kind-hearted business has ensured a South Holland primary school has a Christmas tree for the pupils to enjoy.

Nicola and John Chappell, of Glenside Nurseries, have donated the tree because there would normally be one in the school hall – but the children can’t be in there together all at the same time due to the COVID-19 restrictions.

“This year has been very difficult so we thought it would be nice to donate a tree to have outside the school where all the pupils and parents can see,” said Mrs Chappell.

The couple’s children George (10) and Molly (7), attend the West Pinchbeck school.
