CHILDREN from a village near Droitwich Spa donned their wellies for a day of gardening last Monday.

Hanbury First School pupils welcomed horticulturalist Mr Rotavator to class.

He spent a day with the 90 students, teaching them about planting and the first signs of spring.

The visit tied in with their current topic - changes.

Teacher Sue Curnock organised the event.

She said: "The children worked indoors and outdoors.

"They were excited about meeting Mr Rotavator and showing him their vegetable patch."
