| This year has been one of the
most demanding but most satisfying of my teacher career. All the children in my class have
benefited from our involvement in the project. (Senior class teacher) |
|
| Personally I enjoy playing
the games and having fun with the children without the guilty feeling that I’m not
working. The games and fun activities teach the children without them realising they are
actually working. They no longer use the word can’t. (Classroom Assistant)

| A new enthusiasm for learning
right across the curriculum. All pupils and staff have a sense of achievement and
satisfaction. (Headteacher) |
