Andy’s Room is Officially Opened
On Monday 20th November we were delighted to have District Inspector, Mr Belvins, officially open our amazing nurture/wellness space, named ‘Andy’s Room ‘ after the well known character from Disney’s much loved Toy Story.
It is a wonderful new addition to our school, which offers a relaxing ‘hideout’ and a truly magical and serene experience for the children. It can be used by pupils with anxiety issues, or simply as a treat. And is already much lived by both staff and pupils.
P3 enjoy some choice and chill out time in Andy’s Room
