Our Chair of Governors Noel McEvilly is stepping down from his role at the end of term. Over the last 18 years, Noel has championed the school and he has played an active role in moving the school forwards through difficult times. We will greatly miss his input but wish him every success for the future.

Year 1 trip to Nonsuch Park
Year 1 trip to Nonsuch Park
Yesterday Year One enjoyed walking in the footsteps of King Henry VIII at Nonsuch Park. In the past Henry VIII used to enjoy chasing wild boars and jousting but in the present we are playing lots of different games. Some of the games which have been 'crazes of the week'. The children recapped their knowledge of deciduous trees. The children were also able to identify the lavender and smell the relaxing scent. They saw bees just like the bee they have been learning about in the story 'The Bee that Spoke'.
