Everyone in our school community, not least Rev Hawthorne's own family (pictured) were delighted to welcome him to lead his first whole school assembly.  Rev Hawthorne, who is also a Transferor Representative on our Board of Governors, taught the children to STOP and THINK about Lent and the importance of looking forward to the Easter Story and ultimately Christ's Resurrection. 

We will now look forward to welcoming Canon B Martin and Rev Hawthorne into school once a month to lead a morning assembly.

Dear parents

This year Opus Digital Photography (Roy Clements) is offering photographs to:

                              P1, P3 & P5.

The idea is to offer the individual and family photograph every other year. However, if your child is in P2, P4 or P6 you can still use the form to opt for a photograph to be taken: we know some parents like the option of an annual photograph! P7 may wish to be included in a family photo too!

                  Family photos are taken early from 8.30am

 Photographs will take place on:

                          Tuesday 25 February

 Please note this date and plan accordingly.

Description: https://awordwithdaniel.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/ladies-mens-knitted-christmas-jumper-rudolph-print-in-warm-red-4283-p.jpgThis year we plan to hold a non-uniform day on Wednesday 18 December (thereafter children may wear casual clothes for the remainder of the week). We ask that children wear their Christmas jumpers to school on this day or that they simply wear something bright and cheerful. Suggested donation is £1.00.

 

As a school we have established a link with The Guide Dogs for the Blind and once we reach our £1,500 TARGET FIGURE we will be in a position to adopt a puppy on behalf of the children in our school. Having had our visit from Mrs J Best and Mrs M Hutchinson (from Guide Dogs for the Blind) we have almost reached our target to adopt a puppy and to call him ‘Waring’!

The amount already raised stands at £1,034.50.
