Reading Consultants

The Reading consultants will be back in school working with us after half term to help us further develop our reading materials and teaching and learning in school. We are looking forward to making the reading curriculum even more challenging and exciting.

Family Tea Parties

The Early Years staff would like to thank all of the parents who attended the recent Family Tea Parties for the Reception and Nursery children. It was lovely to see so many parents enjoying the refreshments and joining in with the songs the children were singing. Once again, we thank parents for their support.
