Malpas children learn to stay safe

We have recently been teaching Malpas children all about building site safety, when we welcomed pupils from Malpas Alport Primary School to our St Oswalds Court development.

During the visit, the children were given a tour of St Oswalds Court, as well as receiving an informative talk on how to stay safe around construction areas. They also learnt about how we build and use certain products.

Steve Jackson, Sales Director at David Wilson Homes North West, comments: “At David Wilson Homes North West, safety is always regarded as our number one priority, both for our employees and the wider community surrounding our sites. We wanted to raise awareness of the dangers building sites can harbour amongst those close by, particularly local children.

“We have really enjoyed working with Malpas Alport Primary School and are pleased to say that the talk and information was very well received among the pupils.

Furthermore, the pupils were also invited to get into the festive spirit when they took part in a competition to design our official 2011 Christmas card.

Steve continues: “The pupils all did a fantastic job with designing their cards so it wasn’t easy to choose a winner. We’d like to thank the children for their brilliant efforts.”

Mrs Worthington, head teacher at Malpas Alport Primary School, adds: “All the children really enjoyed the site visit, and we’d like to thank David Wilson Homes for inviting us along and teaching the children valuable knowledge about health and safety.

“The children also had a fantastic time designing their Christmas cards. We would also like to thank David Wilson Homes for the selection boxes which all of the children received.”
