On Tuesday 17th November, the whole school enjoyed a Scottish day. Greenloaning Primary joined us too.

Emily Greaves and Celtman

Emily Greaves (The Schools’ Sports Co-ordinator) came and gave us a brilliant talk about her achievement of completing the Celtman.

This is an extreme Triathlon. Emily came 25th in a field of 157 competitors!

She told us about her training plan, the event and what it takes to complete an event like this.

She was a great inspiration to the children and staff.

Emily also raised funds of over £2000 for schools that she works for.

Thank you Emily for visiting us and telling us about your amazing  feat!
