New School Website

We are pleased to announce that we have created a new school website. You can find the website at The website will contain images of the children during their daily routines and any events taking place. There will be a calendar for important dates and most importantly the news articles will be updated by the children. The website will be driven by the children to allow them to write about topics that they feel are important.

National Tests

These took place – 3rd -10th May. Pupils from y2 –y6 were tested on Reading, Math Procedural and Math Reasoning.
