Rippa Rugby

Rippa Rugby is the new game for young rugby players.  We were very lucky to have Sean from College Rifles visit us last week. He ran some sessions for the whole school to experience Rippa Rugby to give all kids a chance to participate in our national game with ball-handling and running skills.  Rippa Rugby is a very safe, non-contact, easy-to-play game for both boys and girls alike.  Best of all it’s fun and exciting for all involved.

Fire Truck Visit

What a fantastic experience for our children to be visited by two Fire trucks on Tuesday afternoon to school.  The children excitedly gathered around to gain knowledge of how they needed to stay fire safe and escape from a burning building. Learning to use the best safety practice techniques for lifelong behaviors with fire.  Today, we had put it to the test with a practice fire drill.
