Sport relief!

Thank you and well done to all the boys and girls for participating so enthusiastically in our sport relief morning! They all ran, jogged and walked their sponsored mile fantastically with some of the upper primary pupils pairing up with the younger pupils and encouraging them along. It was great to see so many participating in the hula hoop and skipping competitions in the hall, with all competitions being closely contested.

A big well done to our winners of all four competitions:

p1 – 3 hula hoop: Jack

p1 – 3 skipping: Meah

P4 – 7 hula hoop: Tia

p4 – 7 skipping: Louise

Finally, a massive thank you to the parents and carers who came along to watch the morning activities and cheer everyone on.

The total money raised will be revealed in due course as we are still waiting for some sponsored money to be returned.
