Their teachers must sometimes wonder if they’re seeing double. There are 20 sets of twins on the roll at one Cheshire school, including four pairs who joined this month.

But teachers have built up so much experience in tackling the challenge of teaching identical siblings that the school now specialises in looking after them.
Mention the name “Winslow, Arizona” and it’s sure to trigger the question “Are you from Standin’ – On – A – Corner – In – Winslow, Arizona?”
The lyrics from the song “Take It Easy”, written by Jackson Browne and Glenn Frey, were made famous by “The Eagles”. It’s a song almost everyone knows, hums and sings. It has put Winslow on the map – and at just the right time!
Now you can stand on the corner in historic downtown Winslow, like thousands of people do every year, and have your picture taken at the Standin’ on the Corner Park. The park features the artwork of muralist John Pugh and sculptor Ron Adamson.
Winslow, Arizona is located on Interstate 40, between Flagstaff and the New Mexico border.
A female shorebird was recently found to have flown 7,145 miles (11,500 kilometers) nonstop from Alaska to New Zealand—without taking a break for food or drink.
It’s the longest nonstop bird migration ever measured, according to biologists who tracked the flight using satellite tags.
The bird, a wader called a bar-tailed godwit, completed the journey in nine days.
