A humpback whale was spotted by Jersey schoolchildren returning from a day trip to Sark.

Teachers and pupils from St Lawrence Primary School and d’Auvergne School captured the sighting on video and in photos as they travelled on Monday.

Donna Gicquel de Gruchy, from British Divers Marine Life Rescue Channel Islands, said the humpback whale appeared to be a young one.
