Annamarie Pritchard, chair of the Friends of Shoscombe School Association, said: “The children are very much enjoying learning all aspects of forest life. The outdoor learning is carried out in all weather and with the winter months approaching we are very grateful for the kind donation from Dickies to make this possible.”

Dickies children’s vermont water resistant suit has draw cord adjustments and elasticated cuffs in a bid to provide all-round weather protection. The clothing is manufactured from hardwearing PVC with a mesh buggy lining to keep children warm.
