YOUNGSTERS at Saltburn Primary School can delve into the world of books thanks to their community's handiwork.
Fifty storysacks will be available on loan for the school's nursery and reception children after a project, co-ordinated by nursery teacher Jen Leaver and parent Val Durston.
The founder of the storysack concept, Neil Griffiths, travelled to the school on Friday to cut a ceremonial ribbon to the newly refurbished story area.
The scheme has been funded by the Reading Families Millennium Award Scheme, and the school, with parents helping by painting the area and supplying soft furnishings.
Work will still go on for the Storysacks Development Group, made up of parents, relatives and the community. The Embroidery Guild aims to make 30 more sacks.
