CHIRPY youngsters were delighted after watching a brood of fluffy baby chicks hatch.
As part of their Egg Watch project, tots at Deeping St James Community School, in Hereward Way, Deeping St James, bought 11 eggs and waited to see if little chicks popped out.
They studied the eggs as part of life cycle and farm topics.
Head of the foundation stage unit Claire Griffiths said: “Egg Watch rapidly became Chick Watch.
“Normally, there is a 30 per cent success rate, but we were lucky because all of them hatched.
“They are very boisterous and will go to live with friends of the school.”
