Dear Parents/Carers,
Dear Parents and Carers,
Today our pupils celebrated Earth Day. Earth day is an annual event to show support for protecting the environment. During the House Challenge pupils learned about issues such as pollution, climate change, recycling and how to take action to help the planet in their assemblies and in their houses. The pupils had many questions and thoughts about how they can support save our planet with even the smallest of steps such as ensuring lights are switched off when not required. Please do enquire what your child found out.
It was wonderful to see so many parents and carers at book look today. Later this term you will receive your child’s end of year report. Please see your child’s class teacher if you have any questions about how to help your child to make the very best progress.
Our Nursery places are filling very quickly but we do have a few places left. If you have a child who will be turning four years of age between September 2025 and August 2026 you are able to apply for a place by completing a form, available from our school office. We offer part time and full time places. If you want to get your child’s education off to a flying start come along and collect a form or pop in to have a chat to find out more.
Some of our Year 6 pupils have been helping us to redesign our lunch menu. We are pleased to say this is now in place. Please see the link below.
