We have had many successes to celebrate as many of you will know from attending our Friday assembly—any one who didn't make assembly this week you are more than welcome to come any Friday from 9am. Well done to everyone who made it to school this week. We have smashed our whole school attendance target again this week, achieving 98.8%. Every single class beat the target of 96% and two classes achieved 100%,what a fantastic achievement once again. Let’s see if we can keep it up next week too!
