For caring youngsters at High Oakham Primary School on Nottingham Road have been helping to brighten the days of key service workers by sending them positive messages and colourful artwork as a ‘thank you’ for keeping us safe during the Covid-19 pandemic.
They have also created a ‘waterfall of wishes’ as a beacon of hope for their community – a stunning cascade of positive messages to be enjoyed day and night by residents living close to the school.
