Members of the community including former pupils and staff were invited to a special day of celebration commemorating the 180th anniversary of St David Haigh and Aspull CE Primary School.

They enjoyed the photographs and historical artifacts on display while the school choir entertained the guests and pupils performed an original production created for the event, led by Lisa Lundie from Let's Pretend.

Coun Chris Ready, who also had a part in the production said: "What a fantastic day! The school was filled with nostalgia and plenty of stories as former pupils reminisced about their school days.

"Here's to 180 years of St David's School and many more years of inspiring future generations."
