Head of School Message
Dear parents/carers,
What a wonderful half term we have had here in school. The children, as always, have been an absolute joy and walking around school today has made me feel very lucky indeed to lead such an amazing school.
We raised over £70 for the NSPCC today with our ‘Dress Up for Digits’ day and the teachers planned some really exciting activities for the children to enjoy today. Mrs Gairy asked everyone how to cut a cake into 8 equal pieces with 3 cuts? It certainly got the children and staff thinking!
Have a lovely half term and we will see you on Monday 24th February.

World Book Day event – Wednesday 5th March
As part of our ‘World Book Day’ celebrations in March, we have been extremely lucky to secure the company ‘West End in Schools’ to visit our school and carry out bespoke dance workshops. The workshops will be centred around a well known book. The children will have a different book for each key stage, which will be appropriate to their age group. This event is extremely popular and we have been trying to book them for a couple of years, so we are thrilled to offer this to our children this year. This will take place on Wednesday, 5th March.
For this exciting event to take place, we are asking for a contribution of £5.00 per child towards the cost. Contributions must be made through sQuid. Please make your payment by Friday 28th February 2025.
If you feel you are not in a position to contribute towards the event would you please email Mrs Mavin. This is because if a significant number of families are unable to support us the cost falls to the school budget and we may not be able to run the event.
