Shared Education Team 1

We had a fabulous Creative Dance/Movement session with our Pushkin facilitator Libby Mailey on our theme of ‘Opening Ground’.  Our pupils explored the theme through dance. This morning’s workshop incorporated so many aspects of the currriculum and of our Shared Education values. Pupils are cementing friendships through our Shared Education Programme which is developing our children in so many ways and giving them new opportunities to develop their talents.
