PUPILS at a primary school will be shining bright thanks to a property developer.

David Wilson Homes has donated dozens of high-visibility kit bags to pupils at Southminster Primary School.

The kit will allow them to safely attend school trips and walks around in the community as the nights draw in.

The kit bags provide support for the children and will be used to carry their belonging on the trips.

Sales director Annette Hurst said: “As a leading homebuilder, it is one of our main priorities to give back to the community and help wherever we can.

“We’re so pleased to be able to help provide the children at Southminster Primary School with the means to enjoy school trips more safely.”

The firm is building the Blackwater Reach development near the school.
