4th September 2026
It has been an absolute joy opening our doors this week and seeing the corridors filled with bright smiles, enthusiastic energy, and happy reunions. Even though the children have only been in school for two days, they have settled into their routines brilliantly, bringing our shared vision to life right from day one as we work together, building each other up in love and learning.
While the rest of the school is getting back into the swing of things, our Reception team is currently out in the community making home visits. These visits are such a special part of our term, allowing us to build strong relationships with our new families in a comfortable setting before that big first step into the classroom.
We are all so excited to welcome our youngest pupils when their staggered start begins next Wednesday. To our incoming Reception children and their families: we cannot wait to meet you, and watch you flourish as you join our school family.
Here is to a brilliant year ahead filled with kindness, growth, and wonderful learning experiences together!
