School Council:
There have been quite a lot of reports of people allowing dogs to fowl the pathways leading up to school. The School Council are having a competition to design a poster to try and stop this big problem. It can be done on the computer, freehand, painted or a collage. The winning poster will be displayed around school. It is free to enter and you can get a piece of paper from your class teacher or from the office. Entries need to be in the Friday after Easter.

Easter Holidays:
School closes this Friday 30 March at the normal time and re-opens on Monday 16 April.

We would like to wish you all a very happy and peaceful Easter
