Your Challenge: Through January, share with us a photograph of yourself/family being active (after school/weekend) – for example going for a walk/run, at a club, exercising at home etc.
Tweet your photo tagging @WhitehirstPs or send it to Miss Johnstone (who will tweet it directly) gw09johnstonelouise@glow.sch.uk
We look forward to seeing all your January ‘active’ photographs.
