The local National Trust team have teamed up with Ambleside C.E. Primary School to develop a series of exciting activities and projects to promote the Trust's valuable work in our area. These webpages provide a wonderful way for the children and teachers to share these valuable experiences with our many visitors. Through our Intranet, the other children at Ambleside can get to see what the other classes did during their days with the National Trust.
