HEADTEACHER’S NEWSLETTER
The celebratory activities for the coronation last Friday were a fabulous way to mark an important occasion. Please see below for some photos of the things each class were involved in (except Year 6 who are still completing theirs). This week we have returned to more serious learning matters and Year 6 in particular have worked incredibly hard to complete their SATs tests to the very best of their ability. We are really proud of the calm, determined way they coped with these difficult tests, trying their best to demonstrate all the learning they have achieved over the last few years. Well done indeed!
Mrs Christine Richards

Please note…
Please be reminded that all children, including those in Pre-school or younger, must stop riding scooters and bikes and walk with them once you are through the school gates and on school grounds. At pick up and drop off times, the path and car park areas are always busy and even small children on scooters can cause nasty accidents if they are riding them at these times! Thank you.
Come and work with us!
Don’t forget to check our Career Opportunities page regularly. We have a temporary position available for a teaching assistant in Lower KS2, and we are also recruiting a part time class teacher to start with us in September, on a 1 year contract. Do get in touch with the office team if you, or anyone you know would like more information.
