THE Mail has been a regular visitor to Pennington Church of England School over the years to record the achievements and successes of its pupils.
In 1993 pupils from the school were the winners of the Ulverston Home Safety Quiz, after competing against three other teams in the finals.
The Pennington team - complete with fluffy mascot - was given a shield by Ulverston mayor Cllr Colin Hodgson, who chaired the home safety committee.
The other teams in the competition were Sir John Barrow School, Croftlands Junior School and St Mary's RC Primary School.
The following year more brainy youngsters from Pennington showed they were all clued up about safety around the home by coming top in the Ulverston Home Safety Quiz.
They defeated Penny Bridge C of E School when the annual competition for Ulverston schools reached its climax at Ulverston Methodist Church Hall in March that year,
Teams from Croftlands Junior School and St Mary's RC School were the teams knocked out in the semi-finals.
The question master was Ulverston's chief of police Insp Dave Sear and trophies were presented by Ulverston mayor Cllr Phil Lister.
Pennington School's Upper Junior 5-a-side team were victorious at all the galas they had been invited to during the 1996 season.
They competed and were successful at galas at Ulverston Victoria High School, Pennington, St Mary's and at Low Furness.
The team comprised Danny Dover, Craig Newby, Steven Woodhouse, Rikki Gallagher, Mark Redfern, Jake Davey, Philip Dawson, and Andreas Sanders.
When pupils of Pennington School decided to raise funds for a soccer strip for the school team in 1989, the Friends of Pennington School generously matched their efforts.
The result was two sets of immaculately turned-out teams, instead of one.
In 1994 a boat was donated to the school from the construction centre, which helped schools make learning fun, using construction as a context for learning.
The boat was restored by David Mills, a painting and decorating student at Furness College and would be sunk into the school's playing field.
