WOW and thank you! We raised over £5,000 at the Summer Carnival last Saturday. It was a great day and well supported by parents and the local community. An extra special thanks to the PTA officers for organising and running such a successful event, it wouldn't have happened without the hard work you put in.

We are all looking forward to the Arts Festival today. The children will be singing, dancing and playing instruments on the stage outside and the hall will become an art gallery.  We look forward to seeing many of you later.

What's Going On

You should have received an email with an attached End of Year Events document. Please refer to this over the coming weeks as there is so much organised. Make sure you have Friday 14th July in your diary as the school will be closed on that day.

A copy can be found in the Newsletter page on the website.
