Margaret
OUR pet of the week is top of the class when it comes to school pets.
Margaret, a Jubilee Orpington Bantam, was hatched in 2012 at Gilded Hollins Community Primary School in Leigh where she lives with sisters and some ex-battery hens.
School volunteer Angela Coates said: “She is looked after by volunteers and because she is so pretty she is definitely the children’s favourite school pet.”
