​Wellness Framework

We worked alongside our Amber Committee to create a ‘Calm Cove’ for all pupils. In the Calm Cove we can engage in a variety of relaxing activities such as building fine motor and gross motor skills, listening to music, reading a book and swinging in the hammock. We are looking forward to chilling out in our Calm Cove.

Equine Champions Visit St. Andrew's N.S.

 Local trainer Dermot McLoughlin brought his Grand National winning horses Lord Lariat & Free Wheelin' Dylan to our school on Monday. Champion jockeys Paddy O'Hanlon and Ricky Doyle also joined us for the morning. Dermot is a past pupil of St. Andrew's and his children Ella-Rose & Finn attend our school. We got to chat with Dermot and the jockeys about their success, as well as meeting the beautiful horses up close. It was such an exciting and special morning. We will remember it for a long time to come.
