Year 4 had a fantastic day at St Mary’s Lighthouse in Whitley Bay, made even better by the brilliant weather!
The children loved climbing the lighthouse, exploring the rockpools and creating their own sand art on the beach. It was a brilliant opportunity to learn outside the classroom, enjoy the coastline and make some special memories together.
