On Monday 2nd October, as well as walking and riding to school, pupils came to school wearing bright colours to remind us of ‘Be bright Be seen’

Jonny McCrystal from Sustrans was with us for a special assembly and for some lessons.

Jonny presented our school with a Sustrans silver award for our continuing efforts to promote healthy lifestyles through activities.

Four of our pupils in P6 and P7 Beth, Evie, Joy and Lily had prepared a brilliant Powerpoint on Take5 which they presented to the whole school in assembly.

Take 5 is a special health inititive which seeks to encourage children to take 5 steps to help with their wellbeing.

These steps are

  • Connect

  • Take Notice

  • Keep Learning

  • Be Active

  • Give

Jonny then had an outdoor lesson with P3 and P4 which gave the children ideas on how to take these five steps.

Other classes had road safety lessons and P5 used chalks to design bright T-shirts on the playground.
