SOUTH Derbyshire MP Samantha Niblett has been helping a group of primary school pupils take more lessons in the fresh air after opening their new forest school.

The 148-pupil Weston-on-Trent Primary School in Forrester Avenue welcomed the MP to officially cut the ribbon on its latest Forest School area that has been created in a playing field.

The space has been kitted out so pupils can enjoy regular lessons out there, practising core learning skills such as maths and reading with the natural world as inspiration.

This is the second Forest School area that has been created at Weston Primary, with the MP also cutting the ribbon on a new yurt during her visit.
