Our trip on the Naughty bus

What beautiful weather we had for our ride out on the Naughty Bus! We saw lots of different features of our local environment on our bus ride, but because it was such a clear day we could see the snow capped mountains of the Lake District too! The children were brilliant at paying for their bus tickets!
