• Severn Trent Assembly

  Wed 10 Sep 2025

  On Wednesday 10th September, KS2 were visited by Severn Trent Water company. They talked to them about how to save water, where we get our water from and all the wonderful uses for water.

  We also looked at the water cycle, different famous rivers and how we can look after our earth. The children remembered lots of amazing facts and are going to try and remember to turn the taps off when they aren't using them to save our planet!

  Thank you Severn Trent for a wonderful visit!
