A big thank you to all the parents and children who came along to our local Morrisons supermarket to raise funds for the school. The children and adults spent the afternoon helping shoppers pack their groceries and the public gave very generous donations. The Parent Council are looking forward to sharing the fundraising total with us all soon.

Parkour
Primary 4-7 had the opportunity to try out ‘Parkour ‘ at a recent taster session. The experienced coaches set up a course to teach the children how to move quickly and efficiently through their environment using only their bodies. They learned how  to travel around obstacles by running, climbing, jumping and vaulting safely.
