A NURSERY is "sliding high" after receiving funding worth £1,500.

Greenmount Village Pre-school has bought a new slide for the children after being given the money by the East Lancashire Masonic Charity.

The pre-school, which is based in Greenmount Old School, also used the cash to buy a new water play table and snack tables.

Malcolm Ashton, Bury district charity steward, said: “We are pleased to help Greenmount Preschool and it is lovely to see the children enjoying their new slide.”
