Year 5 / 6 take part in STAR

This week year 5 and 6 have taken part in STAR where they are asked to stop, think, act and reflect. During this week they have talked with WPC Ridgewell about drugs, smoking and alcohol. Today they have seen the effects that smoking has on the body as well as having an opportunity to see what illegal drugs look like.
