Larkfleet and Bourne school provide school lunches

Housebuilder and developer Larkfleet Homes and Bourne Abbey Church of England Primary Academy have worked together to raise funds for a school in Kenya.

Over the recent Easter holidays, Larkfleet organised a special ‘Easter egg hunt’ around its Abbeyfields showhome, located on Spalding Road in Bourne, for all pupils at the local school.

For every pupil that took part in the Easter egg treasure hunt, Larkfleet pledged to make a £2.50 donation to local group Friends of Nyansakia which raises money for an impoverished community in Nyansakia, Kenya.

In total Larkfleet donated £120 to the Friends of Nyansakia which will go directly to the local primary school in Kenya. The donation is enough to provide 48 Kenyan school children with a school dinner for an entire month.

Helen Jones, Larkfleet’s marketing director and governor at the school, presented £120 to Martin McKenna from the Friends of Nyansakia in a special school assembly.

During the assembly, Thomas Lawson, a Year 5 pupil at the Bourne school was selected at random from all Easter egg hunt participants to win a special chocolate prize.

Karl Hick, managing director of Larkfleet Homes, commented: “It has been a pleasure to work with Bourne Abbey Church of England Primary Academy to raise money for the school in Nyansakia. I am delighted with how many pupils took part in the Easter egg hunt and the money raised will go a very long way. Larkfleet looks forward to helping the school raise more funds for the Friends of Nyansakia later in the year.” 

Larkfleet’s Abbeyfields development comprises two and three-bedroom properties with prices starting at just £124,995. The development is ideal for first-time buyers and young growing families looking to invest in a larger home.

Selected properties at Abbeyfields have solar PV (photovoltaic) panels fitted as standard so homebuyers can benefit from reduced energy bills. The PV panels produce electricity from daylight, generating useable power even on cloudy days.

At Abbeyfields, homebuyers can bridge the deposit gap by taking advantage of the government-backed Help to Buy and NewBuy schemes to secure a mortgage with a deposit of as little as five per cent of the purchase price.

Larkfleet has several developments across the East Midlands and East of England including Bourne, Pinchbeck and Deeping (Lincolnshire), Peterborough (Cambridgeshire) and Oakham (Rutland) which offer plenty of choice for those looking to purchase a home.
