Riverbrae School Fun Day
To thank our young people for all their hard work and resilience over the past couple of years, we are holding a Riverbrae Fun day for pupils during the school day on Friday 24th June. Throughout their school day, pupils will get the chance to take part in many activities including playing on inflatables, music and singing, access to an animal handling experience, ice cream, sensory experiences, face painting/glitter tattoos, scavenger hunt, balloon modelling and more. We are very much looking forward to the day as a final year treat for our young people. This event is for our pupils only, photographs will be added to learning journals. You will receive a permission slip in the next few days for face painting/glitter tattoos. You only need to return the slip if you do not wish your child to have their face painted or a glitter tattoo.
Many thanks Riverbrae staff
