Yesterday evening we received a phone call from a parent who lives across from the school to say there was 2 swans in the school ground. 1 swan had bedded down by our KS2 classrooms and 1 had sadly got bogged down in the mud in the ditch around the school.
With the help of our caretaker Heather and parent Katie Cook we were able to get the swans back together on the main playground where they seemed a lot more settled in each others company. Vet nurse, Tracey who works at the local vets in the village also came to assist and we were advised by Cuan Wildlife to leave them be for the evening as it had been deemed they were in good health and uninjured. This was in the hope that they would find their way out of the school grounds themselves.
On arriving in school this morning the Swans had bedded down for the night and were still here. They then made their way onto our school field where they were enjoying a swim in the puddles.
Cuan Wildlife decided it was best to come and catch them and relocate them due to it being a school. It was a successful catch and the swans were released into the River Severn.
