Primary 6 pupils were asked to create a fun fitness circuit which would help younger pupils to practise a range of activities. In small groups Primary 6 chose an activity and the equipment needed.

Back in class we wrote instructions describing how to
Today we have been writing instructions on how to keep fit and went outside to set up a fitness circuit. Each group chose their equipment and set up an area in the playground.

Back inside we spent the afternoon writing instructions and hopefully soon we will be

The children have been very busy planning and preparing their own outdoor learning activities. They are now ready to be tested at our next Leadership Academy! Well done everyone!
