Former pupil shares scientific expedition with our year 6 children

Added on by Pam Evans.

Former pupil, Lauren Crookall-Fallon, came in to talk to the Y6s on Tuesday about her scientific expedition to Oman, with the British Exploring Society.

The children heard about real scientific data collection and application, as well the challenges of living and working in the desert and mountainous regions. The children asked thoughtful questions and had the opportunity to think about their own ambitions.

To Everyone at Neston Primary School

This is to say a huge THANK YOU  to you all for the wonderful Birthday card you sent me for my 100th Birthday.  I was very happy to receive your lovely big red card, decorated with the colourful balloons and stars and the big yellow 100 star that moved!  I thought it was very kind of you and very thoughtful to make such a special card to send to me.

I have many memories of my school days at Neston Primary School which my daughter will write up for me and send to you! One of them was, if we were late for school we were made to stay in! 

I hope you like the photo showing me on my 100th Birthday with your card.  I also thought you would like to see a photo of the card the Queen sent to me and what was written inside!

Thank you again for your lovely birthday card and best wishes on my special 100th Birthday.

With all good wishes to you all
