20 Years of Groundbreakers
New Road Old Stones Trust celebrated 20 years of Groundbreakers serving the churches and primary schools of Greater Manchester on 18th September ’25. More than 80 people gathered at St Thomas Leesfield CE Primary School in Oldham and heard direct from the schools, both staff and pupils, of the impact of Groundbreakers. Our Chair, John Marshall, and Project Leader, Mary Butt, also addressed the meeting. We all then enjoyed the buffet laid on by the team.
“Year 2 absolutely loved the workshop on The Lost Sun. The craft activity was really engaging and meaningful. It helped them to understand the message in the story which was delivered in a really age-appropriate and accessible way. The activities were carefully planned so all the children were involved and participating throughout the session, we had a fantastic time!”
