Our Rewilding Project has now received a big order of trees and foraging hedges for our orchard area. These will be planted during Garden Club which is run by Mrs Byham every Thursday 3.15-4.15pm. Please come along on any week if you can help! It is sure to be great fun.
We had a big turn out for Bat Night! So many of you came along for this and it was great fun! Thanks especially to James Bunyan for such a great talk.
We are a Co-op Cause this year! We will be using this money to fund flexible and loose parts play equipment. If you have a Co-op Membership Card you can go online and select us as your cause and we will get more money –but it will not cost you anything!

We are still looking for Class Reps! Please sign up using our google form if you can help. You do not need to be a committee member to do this role. Class Reps play pivotal part in communications for the school and the Parent Council and it is not a big job!
Please fill out our Google Form or get in touch.
