All Aboard for a creative journey with the family
The All Aboard project at Rossington's Pheasant Bank Primary School aims to give children the chance to embark on a journey of discovery and creativity alongside their families, and is part of darts' Family Learning in Schools programme. The scheme is funded through the Extended Services initiative, which encourages schools to involve themselves in children's education beyond the classroom, and has already been a success in several Doncaster schools over the past year.
