Year 1 spent a glorious, sunny day at Mount Edgcumbe looking for signs that spring had truly arrived.
The children and their teachers crossed the River Tamar on the Cremyll ferry and began their walk around the country park, passing slopes of golden daffodils that were glowing in the sunshine.
The children enjoyed a quick break for refreshments beside the duck pond before continuing their nature walk around the grounds. They ambled along the National Camelia Trail where they saw some wonderful flowers in bloom. The ruined 'Folly' was a firm favourite, giving great views of Plymouth and the sea.
At lunchtime the children sat beside the beach to have their picnic, before setting off once more to explore old buildings and canons on route back to the ferry.
With one last stop for a welcome ice-cream, tired children and staff boarded the ferry at the end of a perfect spring day out.
