Healthy Living
- ‘A Life’ workshops were offered to all children. By participating in a range of activities they learnt more about finding ways of keeping healthy and how to adopt a healthier lifestyle by making good health choices.
- Mrs Baker, our school Catering Manager introduced a daily healthy snack trolley. The children purchase snacks and drinks at the start of morning break; it has proved to be very popular.
