news-icon Letter from our Head of School 


I am writing to remind everyone about our exciting Christmas Shopping Evening next Friday at 5pm-7pm.

There will be lots of exciting stalls and activities so please come along and enjoy yourselves.  All money raised will be going towards improving our outdoor learning areas – see the totaliser next to the First Aid room.

Thank you to all of you who have given your children contributions to bring in to school.  FOBES are running a competition and the class that brings in the most items for the tombola wins a prize!

I am pleased to be able to let you know that The Old Independent Church is booked for our whole school carol service on Monday 14th December at 2.00pm. Please put the date in your diary!

  Tiger Tea Party 2015 

Last week both reception classes enjoyed the story 'The Tiger who Came to Tea' by Judith Kerr. All the children joined in with the 'Tiger Party' organised by FOBES and held in the lower hall. They listened to the story, played some games and enjoyed a tea party with the tiger who really came to visit!

 New Nursery Garden 

The new Nursery garden is beginning to take shape. This week the children have had great fun exploring their new play house. We hope that the house will provide hours of fun, encouraging the children to use their imagination and develop their social skills.

Letter from our Head of School

I have enjoyed welcoming back all the children this week after their half-term break.  Staff and children alike are working hard this half-term on their Art Projects ready for our very first whole school Art Exhibition on Thursday 10th December at 3.15. All classes, as well as shared areas and halls will display topic work and pieces of art made by the children. 

I am also looking forward to going on the French Day Trip with Year 6 children in two weeks’ time – it is always lovely to hear children using their language skills in the actual country.  Our children have been learning French with Madame Kelly for four years and they have a good understanding of common French phrases.  I must remember to set my alarm two hours earlier!
