Children and staff at a Herefordshire school have had an opportunity to leave a lasting legacy at their place of education.

Last September building work began on a new building at Peterchurch Primary School after a £10m investment from Herefordshire Council.

The construction work by Tilbury Douglas is extending the grounds so the school can accommodate a growing number of pupils.

Capacity will increase from 105 to 140 pupils, the council said, reflecting the village's changing needs.

As development and building work continues, every child and staff got to sign the steel beams that will be used in the new structure.

The beams will be installed on 7 January, with the schools social media stating, that their names will "forever be a part of our school’s story and a special piece of Peterchurch."
