Year 3 children from Trawden Forest Primary and Marsden Community Primary in Pendle enjoyed meeting for the first time at a neutral venue where they took part in sports and games together. 

This link is facilitated by our long-term network partner, Building Bridges, Pendle.

This organisation is a local charity which works in a range of ways to help develop a sense of local community and belonging. They partnered with TLN over 9 years ago to add schools linking into their offer to schools to help build connections between different parts of the community. The Schools Linking programme has gone from strength to strength as not only more primary and secondary schools have joined but also multiple year groups within schools link to help strengthen and embed the partnerships. 

Watch the video below to see the excitement of children from different schools meeting together.
