A NEW chapter for a Darlington primary school has been marked with an overhaul of its uniform, with pupils voting for their favourite designs.
Skerne Park Primary School headteacher Kate Chisholm and pupil Alice Edkins, 11, symbolically started production of the new uniforms after Alice’s frog logo was voted to feature on the clothes.
The new uniforms are just one of many changes expected at Skerne Park as it becomes an Academy under the sponsorship of the Hummersknott Academy Trust.
As part of its sponsorship, which formally starts in February 2013, the Hummersknott Academy Trust pledged to pay for the 367 new uniforms.
