Pupils have 100 years to go
YOUNGSTERS from a Penketh primary school celebrating 50 years visited Solvay’s Warrington factory, which is marking 150 years of operation.
The double celebration saw year 3 and 4 pupils from St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School make the trip to the chemical company in Walton and learn about the businesses’ history.
Claire Tyerman, acting assistant head teacher, said: “We are starting a new science curriculum for years 3 and 4 this year and wanted to launch the year with a special event.
“We are grateful to Solvay for hosting this visit which gave our pupils an insight into what scientists do and how their products impact on our daily lives.”
