Well done and thank you

On behalf of all the staff, we would like to say well done again to the Year 2 and 6 children who have worked so hard in the lead up to their SATs and during the tests.  The children’s positive attitude in school and the desire to do well has been wonderful to observe and has made us all very proud of them.

Thank you to everyone who has supported the children at home and also to the rest of the school who have done their best to move around the school quietly during the tests!

School uniform

We have a growing pile of lost property in the corridor, with a range of uniform that is unnamed.  Please could you check that all of your child’s uniform is labelled. Thank you.

Mrs Johnson

It has been lovely to see the children so excited about coming back to school this week and keen to share their news about the holidays.  It’s a busy few weeks now with the Year 3/4 residential visit, trips, swimming sessions starting and SATs and we are grateful for your continued support with activities in and out of school.

Pre-school

The pre-school children have joined us in the school hall for lunch this week and it has been lovely to see them growing in confidence over the past few days.

Netball Club changed

Just a reminder that children are only permitted to wear royal blue sweatshirts/cardigans/ hooded cardigans to school and no other coloured tops should be worn.  Thank you.
