NUT STRIKE Wednesday 28th March. As part of the fight against pension cuts the NUT are calling members of the union to participate in strike action.
Unfortunately the school will have to close on this day due to the number of teachers participating in this action. We apologise for the short notice and the inconvenience this will cause. We will be sending out a letter with further information.

Olympic Week We had a great Olympic week last week with children taking part in a wide range of activities including Karate, Capoeira, Speedstacking, Nintendo Wii, Hockey and Parachute Games. It ended with a teacher’s challenge in Good Works assembly on Friday. We raised a terrific £145.50 for the Sports Relief fund so a big thank you for all your support. Mr. Merchant.
Throughout the week children were asked to choose two children from their class who were best at displaying the Olympic values. All these children received a special medal. Well done!
