Schoolchildren swopped thinking caps for hard hats when they enjoyed a constructive day out of the classroom.

The Westbourne Primary pupils visited the building site of new self-storage centre, Access Self Storage, being developed by Harmonix Construction.

Children got the chance to sit in a digger and also met up with the firm’s mascot Ivor Goodsite.
