Friday 29th April is International Dance Day.
Why don't you have a go at some different dances
Whether it’s Foxtrot, Jive, Gangnam Style, disco boogie, Rockstar, or kicking back with some Hip Hop, there's nothing like a bit of dancing to lift moods and feel positive.
Here are just a few links to some dance routines that you could try at home.
This half term Year 5 have been learning a variety of exercises to improve fitness. Many are similar to aerobics and circuits classes.

Walk to School Week 2020 was great - children at both sites made a really great effort to walk, scoot, cycle and 'park and stride' to school during Walk to School Week and hopefully will continue to use active travel to and from school for the rest of the year.
Here are just a few photos that represent our Walk to School Week, from signatures and stickers, to badges and banners. Well done to Pear, Walnut and Aspen classes for the photos.
