PUPILS IN MAWNAN SMITH PUT ON THEIR THINKING CAPS TO NAME TAYLOR WIMPEY’S NEW DEVELOPMENT

Schoolchildren in Cornwall have been given the honour of naming Taylor Wimpey’s new development in Mawnan Smith.

The youngsters at Mawnan C of E Primary School in the village were asked to put forward name ideas for the new development, which will be located on Goldmartin Field off Sampys Hill.

The winning suggestion of ‘Lowena Fields’ – which means ‘joy’ in Cornish – came from 10-year-old pupil Rosanna Benney.

Randall Brook, headteacher at Mawnan C of E Primary School, says: “It was great that the school was asked to help name the new development and Rosanna’s suggestion was a worthy winner. It is amazing to think that the name she has chosen will probably be associated with that part of Mawnan for all time to come.”

Rosanna’s prize was a £20 book voucher while the school received a £50 book voucher for taking part in the initiative.

Clare Brimble, Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey Exeter, says: “Our new development in Mawnan Smith is located close to the primary school so we thought it would be a great idea to ask the children what they thought it should be called.

“The pupils came up with some fantastic name ideas and we were delighted with Rosanna’s suggestion of Lowena Fields – it works perfectly and it’s nice to think that as she grows up, she will be able to point to the development and say ‘I named that’.

“We’d like to say a massive thank you to all of the children at the school for taking part in our naming competition and to the staff for their help.”
