A Swansea primary school has received a £1,000 donation from the Amazon fulfilment centre in Swansea Bay.

Craigfelen Primary School’s curriculum of enrichment, enjoyment and achievement encourages pupils to fulfil their personal and academic potential. The school prides itself on providing pupils with the best preparation for their journey through education and life through literacy, numeracy, ICT, physical education, and creative activities such as gardening and setting up their own businesses.

The school plans to use the donation to enhance the outdoor area for learners.

Omer Kartal, Site Leader at Amazon in Swansea, said:

“At Amazon, we are passionate supporters of schools and pupils in our community. We’re pleased to support Craigfelen Primary School with this donation.”

Craigfelen Primary School was nominated for support by Ryan Arnold, who works as an engineer at the Swansea fulfilment centre. Ryan’s wife is a teacher at the school. He added:

“Craigfelen Primary is a fantastic school, deserving of endless thanks for the support and guidance it provides to pupils. It’s great that Amazon has been able to make this donation and I know it will be warmly welcomed by everyone at Craigfelen Primary School.”

Mrs Alison Williams MBE, Headteacher at Craigfelen Primary School, added:

“We want to thank Omer and the Amazon team in Swansea for this donation. As a school community, we are dedicated to supporting our pupils to succeed through education whilst ensuring they are proud of their community. This donation will be a great support to us.”

The donation to Craigfelen Primary School was made as part of Amazon’s programme to support the communities in and around its operating locations across the UK.
