...+ our regularly updated Diary Dates, Term Dates, our weekly Headteacher Awards, Weekly Attendance & Punctuality figures, TT Rockstars and Guess the Teacher.
Welcome to the final summer term! We have many exciting events planned for the children and families to ensure that this term is one of celebration and learning.
We truly believe that by working together, we can achieve wonderful educational outcomes for our children. Your continued support and involvement make a huge difference in their success.
As the summer weather remains unpredictable, please remember to send your child with a plain (not flavoured) water bottle that can be securely fastened to avoid spills.
Our lost property store has built up again, including a pair of trainers in good condition. Please check the area to retrieve any lost items.
Let's make this final term a memorable one for everyone. Have a great weekend!
The school's science day was a tremendous success. Children eagerly watched the classic Coke and Mentos experiment, made predictions, and observed the fizzy reaction before discussing the results. They then explored various scientific stations independently, engaging in hands-on activities and experiments. The day was filled with curiosity, learning, and lots of fun, leaving students excited about science. A big thank you to all the children for their excellent behaviour and enthusiastic interaction throughout the day!
