Celebrating Wider Achievements @ Riverbank

At Riverbank, we are always delighted to hear about the achievements that our pupils make out of school. Just inside the reception door we have a Wider Achievements Wall where we promote the many fantastic things our pupils get up to out of school.

So far this session I have heard about a young lady who won two trophies at a dancing competition in Glasgow, two young gentlemen whose footballing talents have been recognised at their football clubs; FC Brave Eagles and Footstars and another young man who has gained his blue belt at Taekwondo.

It is wonderful to hear of the many talents and skills which our youngsters are developing and it’s also great to hear how much they enjoy learning new skills and meeting new people and making new friends.

We are so proud of their achievements and we know their parents and carers will be too. But, most of all they should be proud of their achievements. With all talents and skills, we need to persevere to improve and these pupils show that determination.

I look forward to hearing how our first four pupils on our Wider Achievements Wall progress in their hobbies and look forward to other pupils sharing their achievements with us.
