The primary school is located close to the development on Vickers Way, where the children were dressed in costumes before hearing stories about witches.

The Holden style show home was kitted out with decorations and balloons and attendees received a Halloween colouring sheet to take home after the session.

Kim Abernethy, head of school at Heathcote Primary School, said: “We are very grateful to David Wilson Homes for hosting an exciting storytelling session and inviting our pupils to attend.

“Year One had a lovely time with the storyteller, and really enjoyed their sessions in the show home.”

The sessions were organised as part of David Wilson Homes’ community outreach efforts, with the aim of providing a fun and interactive experience for the children at Heathcote Primary School.
