TEACHERS at St Paul of the Cross Primary School in Burtonwood have been determined to increase children’s participation in sport and competition.

Budding sports starts, who have been provided with a new kit by sponsors Holdcroft Honda, have competed in rugby, handball, cross country and quick cricket competitions.

Stephen Scott, franchise director at the company, said: "I have been a Warrington resident all my life so to represent Honda in my home town is very special to me.

"St Paul's is a great school and being local, I was delighted to help out with their new sports kit.

"The kids look really smart and I hope that some of our Honda ethos rubs off and they try to be exceptional as standard.’’
