LESSONS for a group of pupils are more fun thanks to story bags sponsored by Richmond Meet.
Children at Richmond CE School will use the bags to link storytelling sessions with maths, science and other curriculum subjects.
Michelle Faunderf, from the school, told the Meet committee that each bag, usually based on an animal, will contain items connected to a specific story.
Parents and friends are making up the ten bags, each of which contains £20 worth of materials.
Meet president Lyn Glover said: "We thought it was an excellent project, which will help the children, and it is also great to see the parents involved. Whenever the Meet can help within the local community, especially with children, we will do our best to support effective projects."
Richmond Meet is held in the town over the late spring bank holiday weekend, May 26 to 28, and includes a parade, fair, family events and cycle racing.
