Nelson primary school pupils return from summer holidays to a surprise
With Marsden Community Primary School's new playground equipment officially opened by Pendle MP Andrew Stephenson on September 13th, the Mayor and Mayoress of Pendle were also at the school the day prior as the children returned from their holidays to find the new equipment.
And while the weather may not have played along with a light drizzle threatening to dampen moods, the cheering and excited pupils refused to be cowed by the rainclouds, taking to the new jungle gym and obstacle course with relish.

"We hope everyone here at Marsden enjoys their break times!" they added.
