Getting (..) up on a Wednesday is a dream, she is so excited and springs out of bed knowing she has Guardian Ballers.  

 

Her teacher has also said that the (..) that comes into school on a Wednesday (her GB session day) is a different child, she is a breath of fresh air and we can all see the difference and positivity in her since joining the Activate programme.
