WOW!

It has been another busy and enjoyable first half of term with many highlights.

Our new School Captains are really impressing me with how they have stepped into their roles and have been working hard on bringing our school community together

We have welcomed parents into school for Pre School Cafe, Harvest Festival, Coffee Mornings, Parent Lunches, Tea Time Tunes, PTA events and the usual weekly matches. This week, we saw some excellent dancing from the parents too at our Halloween Disco which, thanks to our amazing PTA, was another fantastic success.

The highlight of the term for most pupils was the annual trip to Hilltop. Although not much sleep was had, the pupils learned so much about themselves, each other and coping with new and exciting challenges We are so proud of them all.

I hope you all have a wonderful half term!
