Linden Homes Helps South Tawton Primary School Pupils Get Ready For The Olympics
02 Aug 2016

Pupils at South Tawton Primary School in South Zeal have been so inspired by the Olympics they’ve been preparing for the 2028 games, thanks to Linden Homes, which has sponsored the school’s athletics and cross country club.

The team of year four, five and six students meet on a Monday after school to practice and compete in different events throughout the year. They recently won the Quadkids athletics competition in Tavistock, after also winning the Weaver Cup cross country competition in May.

Thanks to Linden Homes’ support, the pupils will be receiving new kits ready for the new school year.

Rachel Everett from South Tawton Primary School said: “As a school we are extremely grateful for the generosity of Linden Homes, their sponsorship has allowed us to provide incredibly smart, new kits which the children will be extremely proud of. It will give their confidence and team spirit a fantastic boost!”

Beverly Rickard, sales manager for Linden Homes, said: “The pupils were so enthusiastic and I was incredibly impressed with their passion for sport. The Olympics really does inspire youngsters and they’ll definitely look the part in their new kits. We’ll enjoy following their progress and will certainly look out for them all at the 2028 Olympics!”
