MOTOROLA has helped build a new playground for youngster at Freshbrook School in West Swindon.

Climbing equipment was put in and bright murals have been painted around the edge of the playground.

The pupils from the school council helped with planning the project and the rest of the school also submitted written and sketched ideas for the area, which have been incorporated in the murals.

Heidi Mabbot from Motorola, which has its offices in Groundwell, organised the project.

She said: "The new playground looks fantastic and the children love it.

"It's great to know that Motorola has made a difference to the children of Freshbrook."

The playground was specially opened last month at Freshbrook's summer fete.
