PRIMARY school pupils from across Stretford and Urmston got a taste of 'big school' when they spent the day at St. Antony's Catholic College

The Urmston-based church school hosted more than 150 children from seven different primary schools designing lessons aimed to engage and enthuse the Year Five children.

The taster day is part of St. Antony's transition programme and is always a hit with children and their host teachers alike.

St. Antony's headteacher Fiona Wright said: β€œIt's such an incredible pleasure having the young ones in the school. They are always so enthusiastic, polite and happy and our staff and pupil mentors really enjoy opening their eyes to all the opportunities that secondary school will offer them in another year's time.”
