Happy 100th Birthday Sir David Attenborough!

This afternoon, the whole school took part in the Picture News Live Assembly. Wildlife legend, Steve Backshall was also a special guest! The children learnt the following interesting facts:

• Sir David Attenborough joined the BBC as a trainee in 1952
• He loves to travel and explore the world
• He has more than 50 creatures named after him, such as the Attenborosaurus

Here are a few wonderful quotes from Sir David Attenborough:

"The truth is the natural world is changing...it is the most precious thing we have, and we need to defend it."

"The future of the earth depends on our ability to take action."
