As we near the end of our topic on rivers, we took a trip to Newburn.

Our first stop was at Newburn Bridge where we looked at the bridge itself. We talked about the type of bridge it was and how people would have crossed the river in years gone by. We also discussed what the river would have been used for in the past.

As we walked along the river, we looked for signs of spring and characteristics of the river’s journey, we clearly saw it meandering and a waterfall. Once we got to Newburn, we stopped took some photographs and talked about the characteristics of the river that we could see. What a wonderful morning!
