At Wybunbury Delves we aim to 'light the spark for a love of learning and of life' and 'help children to become leading lights in our community and our world.' We believe Geography offers the very best opportunities to achieve this. We work practically wherever possible to foster and maintain children's curiosity and fascination about our world and our people.
"Geography explains the past, illuminates the present and prepares us for the future." Michael Palin
