Slogan for this year 2022/2023
The children worked collaboratively to come up with a slogan this year. We decided to hold a whole school competition for the Active Flag slogan. I am sure everyone agrees that the above slogan is fantastic and says it how it is.
We in Kilbride love to have any opportunities to get out of our seats and keep moving. We are an active school and proud to say we are.
This is our Active Flag school committee of 2022/2023. They are raring to go! They will act as playground leaders, class reps, equipment monitors and school line leaders as well as the active bell leaders. As we are a small school, the committee will be supported in their roles by all the other children in the school, as much as possible.
The children from 4th - 6th class took part in an 8-week Cycle Safety School Programme at the beginning of the year. It was great to hear and see all the children discuss bike safety and display it when they took to the roads on their own bikes. As roads get busier and busier by the day, this programme couldn't have happened at a better time to help raise cycle safety awareness to the children in Kilbride NS.
The children in Kilbride NS were so excited to invite Dave back to our school to take part in some drumming & movement workshops with all the classes. Some of the classes were lucky to have been taught drumming by Dave before the Covid days. All of the children have been having so much fun creating new beats and dancing to the rhythm of Dave's beats.
