THIS cheeky Easter chick is one of a pair recently hatched by children at Rawcliffe Infants School in York.
Each of the four classes in the foundation stage wrote a name on three eggs, and placed them in an incubator.
And the lucky pupils of class one and class three were delighted when Cherry and Charlie popped out in time for Easter.
Clare Bloxwich, who teaches class one, said: "We will definitely be doing this again. While the chicks were in the eggs the children were able to follow their development using a kind of light called a candler. They were absolutely fascinated."
A home has been found to adopt Cherry and Charlie and provide them with a happy life on a farm.
Admiring one of the chicks is five-year-old Jasmine Rachwan.
