Meet Our Partners
The Parents & Pupils
We are in regular contact with parents regarding the ASF process and activities in school. Parents attend Showcases and also are involved in activities during Active School Week & Be Active ASAP. Unfortunately this year it has not been possible to have a committee due to the school’s Covid policy but each class has designated Active Officers who keep Active Schools activities on track. Their jobs include recording laps on the Walkway and ensuring the three steps to reduce sedentary time are carried out throughout the day.
Pupil & Parent Questionnaires
Our pupil & parent questionnaires were created on Monkey Survey and the link was put on our website. Many thanks to all pupils and parents who filled them out.
