OPAL Golden Welly Award

Well done to our golden welly winner this week. He has been very collaborative and included other children in his play. His kindness has been spotted by many different staff.

Y6 SATs

On Monday through to Thursday, we wish all of our Y6 children the best of luck as they sit their SATs. We know all of our children will try their best and that is all we ask for. But remember, SATs don’t measure who you really are 

Sun Safety

Please make sure children are wearing factor 50 sun cream when the weather is predicted to be hot. Please leave jumpers/cardigans off. Children need a water bottle to stay hydrated & a hat to protect them from the sun. Children will be encouraged to play in shaded areas
