Our Active School Committee drew up a rota for the use of P.E. Equipment in the playground at lunchtimes.
The Active Agents in each class brought out the equipment every day and ensured that it was brought back inside afterwards. The children had great fun playing with the hoops, beanbags, scoops and balls and their skipping skills have improved immensely!

BECAUSE OUR DIFFERENCES ARE WHAT MAKE US GREAT
March 21st is World Down Syndrome Awareness day and the day is marked by people wearing mismatched socks. We invited all the pupils and staff to wear mismatched socks to school – ‘Because our differences are what make us great’. Ryan and Alana came to school with rice krispie buns for everyone which were made by Ryan and Alana, with the help of Mum Paula and sister Amy. Thank you for the lovely treats!
