An Oldham school was visited by a world-famous rapper who made a donation.
BRIT award-winning rapper Aitch has opened a new outdoor cabin at New Bridge School, which has been named 'Harrison's Hut' after him.
The 24-year-old celeb's full name is Harrison Armstrong, and he visited the school where his little sister Gracie attends.
Alison Tootill, headteacher at New Bridge School, said: "Harrison’s hut is going to make such a difference for our young people. It will be a place where our children feel happy and safe.
"It will be a place where we can play, learn and have fun. The hut will be a place of excitement and exploration – allowing our children to have outdoor/indoor learning experiences.
"We cannot thank Harrison and the family enough. Not only for the donation, but for allowing us to be part of their daughter's life.”
New Bridge, establised in 2004 in Hollinwood is a secondary special school for students aged 11 up to 19 years.
The opening of ‘Harrison’s Hut’ follows Aitch’s 15,000-ft skydive for World Down Syndrome Day and Down’s Syndrome Awareness Week last year.
