Dear Parents
Please can I thank parents, staff and colleagues who contributed and attended the Celebration Lunch. Everyone had a fantastic time and it was great to see so many parents in school. I really feel that parents and volunteers make a great contribution to the life of the children whether helping in class or talking to children about their experiences. If any parents would like to come into school, please have a chat to Mrs Bedell.
Ms McLeod is now on maternity leave and Mrs Bedell is taking on some of the community teacher duties in addition to PSHCE co-ordinator.
