We would like to take the opportunity to thank all visitors for making this week possible.  Also a big thank you to parents, friends and families for providing your free time to help with activities.  This is also much appreciated.

We aim to upload lots of photographs throughout the week so families can find out even more about Health Week.

We (the staff) are all really excited about next week and hope you are too.

Thank you very much to the Co-operative and James Wilson Ltd for their kind donations of food products to support the Food Health Activities.
