With GCSEs coming to an end next week, Telford & Wrekin Council is giving every current year 11 student a free ice-skating session in recognition of their hard work.
The vouchers, which are being distributed directly to schools, can be redeemed at any public skating session or family disability session.
Councillor Shirley Reynolds, the council's Cabinet Member for Children, Young People, Education, Employment and Skills, said: “Completing GCSEs and preparing for the next chapter of education or training is a major milestone in the lives of young people.
“With the exams almost done for the year, we wanted to offer a small gift to every student to recognise their hard work and determination.
“We hope they’re all able to use the ice-skating voucher and enjoy a fun and healthy way to unwind after exam season on us.
“We also hope they enjoy the summer and wish them all the very best of luck for their results in August and the future.”
Students can redeem the voucher during public skating sessions or the weekly family disability skate session (suitable for young people with special educational needs) on Fridays from 5pm to 6pm.
