Primary 5 have been super busy during their humanities lesson today!

As part of Pre-school's 'Under the Sea' topic, the children have been learning all about fish.

A group of children walked to Morrisons and visited the fishmongers. They spoke to a lovely man about all of the fish that he was selling and brought back to school some sardines for their friends to have a look at.

Congratulations to Jess in Y7, who took part in the 5K, Pretty Muddy 'Race for Life' event at Weston Park on the 4th May to raise money for Cancer Research.

It was an emotional but wonderful, fun day for all.
