  Winter Walks

  Posted by Mr A Hart

  As a wellbeing activity today we asked the children to go for a walk to somewhere new. Olivia went for one and found badger set, snowdrops and a little Brooke. Nice to see the rain finally stop for a minute or two.

  Circus skills

  Posted by Mr A Hart

  Olive, has been doing Circus skills for a while, and unfortunately I've never had the chance to see her demonstrate her skill. As she didn't really fancy yoga today, she sent me a video of her completing a few moves. To say I was impressed, is an understatement. Incredible skills, which the picture doesn't do justice. Well done Olive, keep it up!
