Year 6 Leavers Tea

We are looking forward to the Year 6 Leavers' Tea on Monday. Parents of Year 6 pupils are warmly invited to join us at 4pm for a short concert, followed by tea. We have had enquiries about the length of the tea and it is anticipated that the event will be over by approximately 5:15pm. We regret that on this occasion we are unable to include siblings and other guests.
