Grovelands School, Hailsham, gets into character this Christmas
The school, which is located nearby to the housebuilder’s Ersham Park development on Ersham Road, put on several shows for families in the run up to the end of term.
With school budgets feeling the pinch during the cost of living crisis, the housebuilder’s £400 donation covered the costs of purchasing a range of props and costumes for its annual Christmas play, including the nativity back drop, props and programmes for parents/carers.

Our nativity plays are integral parts of the festive celebrations, and going on stage in front of friends and family is such an important opportunity to develop our children’s confidence and creativity, and is something we look forward to every year.”
Kimberley Benson, Sales and Marketing Director for David Wilson Southern Counties, adds: “This winter we wanted to help spread a little bit of festive cheer in time for Christmas, and this contribution will ensure no one has missed out on a costume or prop for their own special moment. These end of year celebrations are key memories for children as they grow up, and we look forward to seeing everyone in action over the next couple of weeks!”
