On Tuesday 11th October, the Lower School and Year 1 were lucky enough to be visited by Marmot Recycling. They are a specialist food waste haulage and recycling company that operate all around the UK.
The boys were able to meet the senior managers of the company and have a look around some of their very impressive trucks. There was masses of excitement from pupils and staff alike when the 44 tonne articulated lorries arrived!
The boys had a great deal of fun, but also realised how hard it must be to operate a vehicle such as these and how careful they must be around roads in general.
Year 3 have been looking at transport in the Roman era and had a spirited debate about how much easier we have it nowadays; with the use of trucks and other means of transport.
It was a pleasure to host Marmot Recycling and the boys went away thoroughly impressed with the experience.
