New JRSOs Take On the Job

Our new JRSOs have started the job by performing an official survey for Sustrans on how we all get to school.

JRSOs are Junior Road Safety Officers and ours are Abhyuday and Trissha for this school year. Their task is to support road safety in school and to also encourage safe and environmentally friendly journeys to school.

Look out for the national results of the survey they contributed to in the press in coming weeks.

P2/3 Stars’ Starry Starry Night

P2/3 have enjoyed working together to create a giant reproduction of van Gogh’s “Starry Starry Night” painting. The children used paper and oil pastels to create different textures and I’m sure you’ll agree, the result is impressive! We have been learning all about Van Gogh, his life and his painting style.
