CHILDREN from Clifton Green Primary School in York get in some practice before taking part in an ancient May Day custom today.
The Year Two children, aged six and seven, planned to make the short journey from their classrooms in Shipton Street to Clifton Green to dance round the Maypole.
They are pictured practising their dancing in the sunshine and were hoping that that other great English tradition, bad weather, would not prevent their spring celebrations going ahead today.
