Here at Rhumsaa, we love throwing our pupils in the Learning Pit! It's a great way for our pupils to learn about the processes of learning and to understand that learning can be challenging! It's all about knowing what you know, knowing what you don't, figuring out how to make progress - and learni…
Here at Bunscoill Rhumsaa we've been doing the Daily Mile for a few years now - but just what is it? The Daily Mile is a social physical activity, with children running or jogging – at their own pace – in the fresh air with friends. Children can occasionally walk to catch their breath, if necessary…
