Wrenbury Primary School is marking an extraordinary milestone this year: 150 years at the heart of its village community.

Since opening its doors on Nantwich Road, Wrenbury, in 1876, the school has been a place of learning, friendship, and shared memories for generations of pupils, families, staff, and neighbours.

To honour this heritage and look forward to the future, the school is launching a year-long celebration and inviting the wider community to join in commemorating its rich history.

• Photographs, artefacts, memorabilia or documents linked to the school's history
