Yoga at Strachur P.S.
We are very excited to start our yoga club at school after 3 teachers and 1 parent attended recent training, provided by Active Schools.

It was open to Primary 6 and 7 pupils, although some younger children did choose to watch! We had some children who had played before and some beginners, so thank goodness we had Elspeth and Tony to teach them the game. Chess Lunch Club will continue every Wednesday.
