how the pool was funded

In December 2017, Yoxford & Peasenhall Primary School applied to a new government Healthy Pupil Capital Fund (popularly known as the ‘sugar tax fund’), for investment to upgrade their existing in their swimming pool facilities.

We were delighted that our application was successful in securing £320,000 of funding, for the full refurbishment of the pool providing a temperature controlled, fully-heated, all weather facility, with new changing rooms, showers and toilets including disabled and baby changing facilities.
