We have had so many experiences to share from our busy Health Week and here you can see some of the children enjoying a session with Mike, the tennis coach, who provided lots of fun activities to help the children learn control of a tennis ball. They showed great enthusiasm for all the activities, listening well and showing great concentration. Who knows we may have a Wimbledon star of the future here?
Trying out the smoothie bike was another great fun event that some Nursery children took part in during our recent Health Week. The children chose from a selection of delicious fruits and juices which were put in the liquidiser on the back of a specially adapted bike. They then pedalled the bike to activate the liquidiser and produce their smoothie. What an exciting way to make a smoothie – hard work but great fun with a tasty end product.
As part of our Health Week activities, the children in the Rainbow Room enjoyed learning about taekwondo which brought lots of smiles to their faces.
Health Week has not been blessed with the best of weather but some of the children braved the elements earlier in the week to take part in Anklebiters and a range of Potted Sports activities organised by Primary 6 on the school field. The children listened well to follow instructions and thoroughly enjoyed their experiences. Thank you to all those who provided such fun for the children in Nursery.
Our first activity on Monday in the whole school Health Week was actually led by Aoife’s Daddy. Who better to learn football skills from than a professional footballer and it’s even better if it’s one of our parents? As you can see, the children had great fun and tried their penalty shooting skills against a “real” goalkeeper. Thank you to Aoife’s Daddy – everyone thoroughly enjoyed their time with you.

This week Mr. Palmer has arranged different activities as part of a whole school Health Week so fingers crossed for some sunny days so that we can enjoy most of them outdoors.
We seem to have had so many exciting events to share from our busy Health Week and here you can see the morning children enjoying a session with Mike, the tennis coach, who provided lots of fun activities to help the children learn control of a tennis ball. Mike told us that there are classes for Nursery age children at our local tennis courts so we hope that these children have enjoyed their experience and may want to take part in these classes in the future. They certainly showed great enthusiasm for all the activities.
Our local dance school, run by Maureen Smith, kindly provided a great dance experience for some of the Nursery children during our recent Health Week. Not only did we have several very patient dancers to support the children in learning some dance moves but Nellie the Elephant even paid a visit and joined in with our dancing. This was a super experience for the children who came away excited and happy so we would like to thank Maureen and all the dancers for giving up their time to work with us. We all appreciate your support very much.
The smoothie cycle was another great fun event that some Nursery children took part in during our recent Health Week.

The Anklebiters activities were on the menu in Health Week for the children in the afternoon as well as the morning so here a little snapshot of them having fun on the school field. Thank you to Anklebiters – the children loved your activities.
