Last Friday (27th June) the Saints Study Centre held a Barclaycard Reward Day for Queen Eleanor Primary School. Sixteen students, all of which were being rewarded for their hard work, attendance and good behaviour in the classroom, came along to the study centre to take part in a number of activities. The children made name badges on the computers with Pete, an origami rugby kit with Jeanette and Vicki, went on a stadium tour where they were able to run out of the players tunnel like a Saints player and take part in a practical tag rugby session on the Saints training pitches delivered by a Saints community coach.

Throughout the day the children were accompanied by Barclaycard mentors who helped them with their work and encouraged them to have a go at all the activities. The five mentors were hearing impaired and gave the children an opportunity to experience alternative ways of communicating and learning some sign language.
