As part of their effort to help save the world, pupils at Whitchurch Primary School have been learning about alternative ways to help the planet, with different methods of transport.

A spokesperson for Whitchurch Primary School said: “Thank you to the Wintle family for sharing their electric car with us and teaching us about the benefits of zero emission cars.”See this week’s paper for more stories like this, available in shops and as a Digital Edition now.
