Parking – polite reminder

Please do not block in other vehicles at the end of the school day, including staff cars, as this prevents people getting out of their parking space and can make them late getting to their next destination. Thank you

Forest Church Sunday 19th November

Hello all,

It’s Forest Church with a difference this coming Sunday… the difference being that we will be indoors! We’re meeting at the Mission Church in Bomere Heath, SY4 3PD (the white building, just down the road from the Co-Op and opposite the village hall), 3pm- 4.30pm. The theme will be advent and there will be festive woodland crafts, followed by a short worship service and refreshments (which we’ll provide). We hope to see you there!
With thanks and blessings,

Weekly News 10.11.23

Hi everyone,

I hope you all had a good half term. The children seem to have settled back into school well this week and have enjoyed sharing their news from half term. It sounds as though lots of parents had a very busy week!

In celebration of World Kindness Day on Monday next week, some of the older children will be painting ‘kindness rocks’ next week which will be placed at the new housing development on Welshpool Road.

Please can we ask that, if you phone school and there is no answer, you leave a message on the school answerphone. There is not always somebody available to answer the phone but they will respond to any messages left as soon as they can. Thank you.

I hope you all have a lovely weekend.
