 * Fitness at Fair Furlong**

Children at Fair Furlong have introduced a keep fit and healthy regime.

When class 6 went on camp to Barton hill they struggled to get up massive steep hill. "In my opinion, the children should not be out of breath because they should be fit and healthy," said Mrs Purnell. Therefore when they got back off camp all the teachers sat down and talked about it. Eventually they came to a dissuasion to call in a fitness trainer because the children were tired in class and slouching. As a result, they called in Mr Hopkins the fitness trainer who has tried professionals for the Olympics.

There are about 150 children does it and 10 adults. Also the children get to choose the music thy have on. They do stuff like star jumps, running on the spot and normal jumps and things like that.

First of all they are more awake in class and alert. "The children are healthier they look ready to learn and they are happier," explained Mrs Purnell. Secondly the behaviour is improving less people do not get distracted.

In the hall some people can not behave in the hall so a couple of them go out with a teacher.
