AN EIGHT-year-old from Overton CE Primary School has won Bewley Homes’ interior design competition.

Cerys Luckhurst’s entry will have it featured in its new show home at Sovereign Gate in the village.

To celebrate the upcoming launch of its show home in Overton, the housebuilder organised a design competition open to all the pupils at the school. The competition aimed to encourage children to unleash their imagination and contribute to the creation of a unique and inspiring living space.

Cerys' entry captured the hearts of the judges with her captivating jungle theme. Her vibrant and imaginative vision will now be brought to life in one of the children’s bedrooms of Bewley’s new show home, serving as an inspiration for potential buyers who visit the property when it opens this summer.

Fiona Wyeth, headteacher at Overton Primary School said: “The collaboration between Overton Primary school and Bewley Homes not only provided an exciting opportunity for our children to be creative but also to see how this could be used in a real-life situation. We are very grateful to Bewley Homes for the opportunity.”

Cerys received £50 of book vouchers and won her school a much-needed donation from Bewley to its fundraising for new playground equipment.

Bewley has also invited Cerys and her parents to come back to the new development, as VIPs, when the show home launches.

Elaine Stratford, sales and marketing director at Bewley Homes, said: “We were thrilled to see the enthusiasm and creativity displayed by the pupils at Overton Primary school. Cerys’ design truly captured the essence of what we were looking for. It will transport visitors to our show home into an enchanting world filled with lush greenery, vibrant wildlife and a sense of adventure. We can’t wait to welcome Cerys back when we open the show home to see her design which will leave a lasting legacy in our how home.

“Bewley Homes has always valued community engagement and recognized the importance of fostering creativity among young minds. We had some wonderful entries and the imagination from the pupils from Overton Primary School was very impressive.”

Elaine added: “Creativity in children aids the reduction of anxiety and we are keen to help as much as we are able, with children and schools.  Enabling children to engage with an activity which they find stimulating and relaxing can bring relief from other anxieties.”
