Cool Choices – Sept 2017

We  had a very positive month visiting 15 primary schools (19 sessions) during September. Cool Choices aims to help year 6 students make positive life choices and offers a Christian perspective for making ‘Cool Choices’. We had three teams available for the first time and feedback from schools has been very positive with comments from year 6 teachers such as:

Excellent – The children loved it!

The class were very engaged and it was great to see them enjoying the session so much!
