Neighbourhood Policing Team At Princecroft Primary School Summer Fete, Warminster

Sunday 13th July 2025

From the Facebook page of Warminster Police:

Yesterday, PCSO 9469 Revers had the opportunity to attend Princecroft Primary School summer fete. The pleasant weather contributed to a lively atmosphere as he engaged with both children and parents, sharing crime prevention tips and answering questions about policing.

A standout moment for the children was the chance to sit in the police car, where they could test the sirens and examine the equipment used by officers in their daily duties. The children were enthusiastic, asking numerous questions and expressing a desire to learn more about local policing.

A big thank you goes to Princecroft Primary School for their warm hospitality and for hosting such an enjoyable event.

Neighbourhood Policing – A Visit To The Hive At Princecroft Primary School, Warminster

23rd January 2023

From the Facebook page of Warminster Police:

In support of Neighbourhood Policing Week of Action which started today and runs until Sunday 29th January, PCSO Revers visited The Hive Nursery at Princecroft Primary School.

The week of action will focus on four key themes, which are:

• early intervention

• problem-solving policing

• improving trust and confidence through neighbourhood policing

• wellbeing

During the visit, the children were spoken to about the role of the police and were all able to have the various question they had, answered.

The children were fantastic throughout and delighted in the demonstration of the lights and sirens on the police car.

These school visits are a vital part of our role as neighbourhood officers; creating that positive relationship with police early on and giving children the tools to keep themselves safe.

Thank you to the hardworking staff and to the children for making him feel so welcome.

Warminster Schoolchildren Plant Flowers In The Lake Pleasure Grounds (Town Park)

Wednesday 1st August 2018

For the third year in a row Warminster schools have been taking part in “planting in the park.”

Assisted by Warminster Town Council, pupils plant flower beds in the Lake Pleasure Grounds (Town Park) creating beautiful displays for the public to enjoy. The initiative was introduced in 2016 when the Council took over Warminster’s award-winning Lake Pleasure Grounds and is proving very popular with schools.

Amongst the schools taking part this year are St. George’s Catholic Primary School, New Close School, Princecroft School and St John’s School.

Planting by pupils from 
New Close Primary School.

Pupils from Princecroft Primary School
have incorporated a ‘P’ in their display.

St. George’s Catholic Primary School.

of St. John’s Primary School.

The scheme allows children to design layouts and grow plants and flowers. It teaches them about different types of plants and how they grow and respond to different conditions. Signs provided by Warminster Town Council mean that the public can see which schools have planted which area. Park users have been full of praise for the vibrancy and colour the flower beds add to the park. Perhaps it will spark a lifelong interest in gardening or horticulture amongst some of the pupils and we will see them on Gardeners World.

In October there will be a winter planting to look out for.
