TAYLOR Wimpey West Scotland recently challenged pupils of Glenboig Primary School in North Lanarkshire to design a flag to welcome customers and visitors to its nearby Meadowside development.
The winning design was created by Primary 6 pupil Morven Campbell, and it has been produced into a flag that now flies at the entrance to the site.
Morven won a £50 book voucher and recently visited the development to see the flag in situ.
Taylor Wimpey said the standard of the entries was so high that five additional designs were chosen to form part of extra signage at the site. Each child with a featured design has received a £15 book voucher.
Headteacher Mrs Calvert said, “Taking part in the Taylor Wimpey competition to design a flag for their new Meadowside housing development was an exciting opportunity for our school to be involved in. The children enjoyed tackling their brief to create a bold and colourful design, and I understand the judges found it hard to choose a winner due to the high standard of entries.
“The flag looks great, and the banner is so colourful too. Together they showcase the hard work and artistic talent of our children and create a lovely connection between our school and the local Taylor Wimpey development at Meadowside.”
Audrey Ross, sales and marketing director for Taylor Wimpey West Scotland, added, “We are delighted with the winning flag design and indeed the other designs that we chose to create a welcome banner for our Meadowside development. Together they make a very colourful welcome for visitors.
“We recognise the importance of making sure that we support the communities in which we build our new homes. It has been our pleasure to work with Glenboig Primary on this project, and to strengthen and extend our links once again within the local community of Glenboig.”
