Genevieve the Goat Visits Christ the king PS

Primary 1-2 pupils received a surprise visit from a bright eyed and bushy tailed friend on Friday 10th January – Genevieve the Goat!

Genevieve plays the leading role in the ‘Genevieve and the Farmyard Olympics’ book, a fun and educational resource developed by Cancer Focus NorthernIreland.

Clare Smith, Programme manager for Schools and Young People said: “The story of Genevieve and her friends has been designed to introduce healthy lifestyle messages to children at an age when research shows that they are most receptive”.

The children read the book, talked about healthy eating and having a healthy lifestyle.  They played games and performed exercises with Genevieve the Goat. This brought the key messages to the children in an enjoyable and interactive way.
