Wall of Activities

Garden Project

Extended services assisted us in transforming a grassy area in front of our outside classroom into a lovely planting area. The children in our garden club have been busily planting every Thursday after school.

Fantastic Indian Dance Workshop at school

Our children thoroughly enjoyed the experience of having an Indian Dancer at school all day, every class was involved in workshops and the day was completed with a show performed in front of proud parents.

After School Spanish Club

Our Spanish club is very popular with the children, it is a great opportunity for children of a young age to start getting used to foreign languages. The sessions are very friendly and a fun way of learning.

CLUBS COMPLETE AT MOIRA

During the school holidays, several of our children joined the activities at the Village Hall. They performed High School Musical at the end of a Get Creative Week. See pictures below.

UKELELE FUN AT MOIRA

All classes had great fun with Ukelele teacher Mark Ferraby, the children learned their songs and then performed for their parents at a special concert in the afternoon. Mark can be contacted at www.littleredtruck.co.uk
