Hecklegirth Health Week Days 3 & 4

We’re having a very busy but enjoyable time this week! Day 3 saw visits from both Annan Athletic and Gretna football clubs to deliver some fun taster sessions for all children, as well as a very informative (and funny!) visit from Jan and Diane from Speech and Language Therapy who discussed communication with the upper school. The lower school were treated to some karate with Alistair Mitchell from the local Annan karate group. The Nursery also held their annual Sports Activity day yesterday too. Again, a big thank you to these groups and individuals for coming in and giving up their time to show the children (and families) what clubs and activities are out there for our youngsters to join.

Today (Day 4) sees the Primary 7 class off to Annan Academy for a Health and Wellbeing day as part of their transition to secondary school, whilst the rest of the school takes part in a fun potted sports day, organised by our Primary 6 class. And finally the sun is shining on us! Tesco are here to let the children try some healthy fruits and Katie from Annan Youth Cycling Club is coming with a very exciting “Cycle Smoothie” bike!

Here is a small selection of photos from Day 3. A montage of all photos will appear on the TV in the entrance of the school next week.
