PUPILS at Burton Hill House School, in Malmesbury, had an early Easter treat yesterday when a load of chocolate eggs was delivered, thanks to a Wootton Bassett undertaker.

Maslin Funeralcare, which has a branch in Wootton Bassett, has been running a nation-wide campaign to create a four-ton Easter egg mountain.

A total of 28 eggs was collected at Wootton Bassett and were presented to the school for children with special needs.

"We wanted to bring a smile to local children who, for whatever reason, may be in need of a bit of cheer this Easter," said Owen Gibbs, at Maslin. "We are very grateful to everyone who has kindly donated eggs."
