DARE



D.A.R.E
Room 5 and Room 8 have been doing the D.A.R.E programme.
It's a programme that helps with coping strategy and raising self esteem.

When we finished D.A.R.E, we had a celebration at the swimming pool.
We had the blue light inflatable and the hydroslide.  We had a great time at the pool.
Thank you to the pool for letting us use the inflatables at the pool.
