Teacher, Mrs Doris Kirby and parents Debi Fekkes, Katherine Mulholland and Shirley McGuickan are part of the Befit team who are undertaking the Ben-Her climb of the Scottish peak at the end of June.

Personal trainer Andrea Kernohan, who is organising a Befit team of 34 to do the climb, visited the school and two two sessions of Zumba which the children really enjoyed.

Stephen Withers took a ‘bootcamp’ style session with the children which proved challenging but very enjoyable.

The children from P6 and 7 thought up a variety of challenging activities which got all the pupils from P1 upwards involved.

Thanks are extended to all the children and parents for their efforts.
