Making a splash: Pupils from Crabbs Cross Academy with the playful baby ducks
YOUNGSTERS at a Redditch school have gone quackers over some new arrivals.
Crabbs Cross Academy recently had a clutch of eggs delivered to them from a local farm and had been waiting for them hatch.
Their patience was rewarded last week when five ducklings appeared.
They were given a nice home and plenty of food and water, and even got the chance to have a waddle and swim on their own.
A school spokesman called the experience "magical".
