We want to thank Ryan Walker of Barrs Court Primary School for organising various sports events for the Mosaic Academy Trust. These events have brought together teachers, children, and parents/carers in a wonderful display of community support, making them a huge success. Below is Ryan’s summary of each sporting event held so far:
Every Mosaic Academy Trust school was invited to take part in the following sports events in the summer term.

A special mention to Parkwall Primary pupils for their incredible support of all the children taking part, not just supporting their own school.
