Playground Improvers!
Our mural is taking shape despite the rain ! We are hoping to complete our mural and the repainting of all of our playground markings soon.
We are keen that everyone gets the opportunity to get involved in the painting and hope that all children bring in old clothes and shoes, if they haven’t already done so, to enable them to take part.
Bees breakfast !
Primary 6/7 were working hard with our friends from B&Q to create hanging baskets which will not only look wonderful but that will attract wildlife into our playground.
Right to Play Mural
The children began painting our first playground mural today. The children made a great start and enjoyed working al fresco !
Can we please remind all children that they need old clothes and shoes, which can be kept in school, to enable them to take part in the playground improvements.
