Christ the King RC Primary has already secured a grant of either £12,000, £10,000 or £8,000 from the Tesco and Groundwork Bags of Initiative project.
And the amount they receive is down to the people of Burnley who are being given the chance to vote.

A sloped area will be cut into the banking to create an open, flat area, or amphitheatre, with pathways suitable for performing arts productions and educational teaching.
A wildflower meadow will be built alongside living windbreaks to create wildlife corridors, as well as an orchard to grow old English apples which are presently in decline.
Plans are also being made for an outdoor shelter which will also be built using natural materials enabling the garden to be used all year round.
