Year Two pupils from Redstart Primary School enjoyed a wonderful day of sunshine, sea air, and discovery during a recent visit to Lyme Regis, West Dorset – a stunning part of England’s Jurassic Coast.
Pupils explored the famous shingle beach, soaking up the fresh seaside air while enjoying packed lunches with spectacular sea views.
The day was filled with excitement and learning as pupils delved into the story of Mary Anning, the pioneering 19th-century palaeontologist and fossil collector who once walked the same shoreline in search of ancient treasures.
The visit offered pupils a hands-on glimpse into Britain’s rich geological history and inspired a spirit of curiosity and adventure.
A school spokesperson said: “It was a magical day for our Year Two pupils – full of sunshine, laughter, and discovery.
“Walking in the footsteps of Mary Anning really brought the curriculum to life, and the children loved every minute of it.”
