YEAR 6 pupils from Pendock CE Primary, near Malvern, enjoyed a leavers' event to celebrate their achievements.

The school hall was packed with family, friends and members of the community to hear how pupils had shown Pride in Pendock during their time at the school.

Leavers were presented with a keepsake of the evening including a photo montage of their primary school memories.

Headteacher Sally Lyndon Chance paid tribute to parents, staff and the community.

She said: "This is a splendid event that we put on each year.

"We think it is hugely important, as part of the children's transition from the primary to secondary stage of their education, to mark this momentous occasion.

"It's also a great opportunity to thank all members of the school community - children, staff, parents and friends for the support and valuable contributions they make to Pendock Primary."

Mrs Lyndon Chance was also thanked for her hard work by parent Sarah Rowe, on behalf of the Friends of Pendock School.

The evening, on Thursday, July 21, finished with a school disco.
