Headteacher's Welcome It's been another busy week in school with lots going on! Mrs Staniforth has been settling well into a new role as After School Club Leader and has also been visiting lots of the classrooms to get to know the children as well as getting to know them at lunchtimes. A group of Year 2 children have been to Lydgate this afternoon too for an Athletics event. Our new Recorder Club is up and running and I was delighted to hear a short performance yesterday of a piece they had learnt. They all managed to read the music, play the correct note, the correct rhythm and listen to each other and play along with the backing track - it was great! Well Done Everyone!

 We’re very excited about the Summer Fair which is next Friday (20th June) after school! Many thanks to those that have volunteered to help set up and/or man a stall/game on the day. There are still some spots up for grabs – check the board outside school. The number of volunteers we get is crucial to the running of all of the stalls and activities, so please help out if you can. Thanks also to everyone who’s donated treasure jars and tombola prizes. There’s still time to donate these – more info below:
There will be a donations box outside school over the next few weeks, or alternatively please leave with the lovely Office Team. Soooo many amazing prizes have been donated to the raffle this year! Rounds of golf, concert tickets, tennis camp tickets, restaurant vouchers, beauty treatments, brewery tours, etc. To have a chance at winning, please make sure to get your raffle tickets either from the School Office, via one of the school WhatsApp groups or by emailing us (see below).
