YOUNGSTERS from Himbleton First School, near Droitwich, learned about baptism during a visit to a village church.

Nursery and reception children visited the Church of St Mary Magdalene, where the Reverend David Morris baptised the class doll, Toby Himbleton.

The young pupils learned about the religious ceremony, explored the church, sang a hymn and even got to ring the church bells.

At the end of their visit, they were presented with a pastoral candle and certificate to take back to school for their newly baptised doll.
