A great day for Tennis lessons at Boyerstown NS 🎾
#tennislessons #boyerstown #navanschools #navan
Our dance lessons with Áine Farrelly from @elitestageschool are always a highlight of the week.
The children have such great fun in every session. From warm ups to learning new routines, there is constant movement, laughter and energy in the hall. It is wonderful to see their confidence grow as they perform for one another and encourage their classmates.
Dance is a brilliant way to support both fitness and wellbeing. The children are developing coordination, rhythm and teamwork skills, all while having the best time.
A big thank you to Áine and @elitestageschool for bringing such enthusiasm and positivity to our school.
