Go, Go, Go Getters!

Children in Year 3 & 4 at Dr Radcliffe's Primary School have recently formed a new club! The Go Getters! The children chose the name of their club, wanting it to show how much fun they have being active and on the go! They have even got their own badges to show they are proud to be in this 'Change 4 Life' inspired club.

They meet once a week at lunchtime and have so far enjoyed activities such as a weekly 1 minute skipping challenge (they love trying to improve on their score from the previous week), playing hide and seek in the woods, learning how to play 'Four Square,' fun relays and target games.

Dr Radcliffe's is an active school and the Go Getters are setting a great example to everyone in the school to sit less and move even more!
