We had a fab time at Dudley Zoo🐒

The children were identifying the type of skeleton each animal had and more about their diets and habitats!

On Friday Reception visited Lower Drayton Farm👏

They were met by Stephen from Country Trust who took them on a tour of the farm and talked to them about the farm's animals!

They saw newborn lambs and their mums, cows, donkeys, goats, alpacas, Shetland ponies, a peacock and an ostrich as well as rabbits, Guinea pigs and tortoises🐷

They had a wonderful time and enjoyed playing in the soft play at the end of the day as well.

On Monday 9th March, our school council attended Walsall’s annual Commonwealth of Nations flag‑raising ceremony outside the Council House, recognising the shared values that unite 56 member countries👏

Representatives from the armed forces community, the Deputy Lieutenant and local schools joined the Mayor for the official flag‑raising.

Our very own Lacey helped to raise the flag!

We were really proud of all of our School Council pupils who were a credit to Abbey Primary School🙌
