Duck Racing’s a Winner!


Despite the lack of sunshine, a lovely, warm atmosphere was created at Eastington Primary School’s annual Duck Races and Fête.  The families and well-wishers who flocked to the field to enjoy the activities and stalls were not disappointed. The Parents Association had ensured that there was fun for everyone – from a bouncy castle to a burger tent and ‘donut dunkin’.

The duck races proved to be as popular as ever, made especially exciting this year by the particularly fast flow of the stream.


The School’s Head, Ms Zoe Avastu, praised the efforts of the Parents’ Association, staff and pupils who had worked hard to make this traditional school event such a success.

The money raised on the day will be used to help fund school projects.
