We invite Great Bentley's young talent to take on our flag design challenge

Pupils from Great Bentley have helped to design welcome flags that now take pride of place at the entrance to our Hartford Green development.

Supporting our communities

We challenged children at Great Bentley Primary School to come up with a vibrant and imaginative flag that represents Great Bentley and its famous village green, embodying the harmonious blend of country living and family life. 


The pupils created a range of colourful entries, giving the Taylor Wimpey team a tough decision to make. In the end it was the two eight-year-old pupils Amelia and Otto whose designs took top prizes. They then paid a visit to the development to view their flags at full mast and to receive their gift prizes. 


Louis Collins, headteacher at Great Bentley Primary School, said: “We are grateful to Taylor Wimpey for hosting the fun flag design competition for the pupils as it not only provided a platform for them to showcase their artistic abilities, but it also empowered our pupils to express their creativity and community spirit."

Michael O’Leary, Regional Operations and Sales Director at Taylor Wimpey London, said: “The flag design competition at Great Bentley Primary school exemplifies the vibrant spirit of our communities. We are delighted to collaborate with the school and to see the pupils’ artistic talents flourish.                                                                      “Amelia and Otto both did a great job with their designs and it was lovely to invite them down to the development to see their flags flying high.”
