On Monday 7th April, the Mayor of
Crewe and Nantwich, Councillor Maurice Jones and the Mayoress, Mrs
Ann Jones, visited Sound County Primary School to present a very
special award. The Mayor presented a Certificate of
Achievement to some of the school’s star pupils.
During last November and December, the
Community Wardens gave presentations to local Primary
Schools. They talked about the negative effects of anti-social
behaviour, about being a good citizen and the role everybody has in
the ‘respect agenda’. They asked the pupils to think about their
contribution to their environment, answer a set of
thought-provoking questions and to answer a tie-break question.
The Community Wardens marked all the entries
and the Borough Mayor, Councillor Maurice Jones, judged the winning
entries. The decision was very difficult with many schools
making a fantastic effort. Every one of the 26 participating
schools received a certificate for their participation in the
event.
Sound Primary School won the top prize of
a laptop computer, kindly sponsored by Manchester and District
Housing Association.
Amanda Jones, from Manchester and District
said: "We are delighted to be involved in any initiative that
promotes a positive message to young people. I am sure that
the children involved understand the importance of being a good
citizen and this can only mean a good thing for our
neighbourhoods. The prize is really well deserved."
