Spring 2010

With this cold snap Spring seems a long way away!- See the third Newsletter  for 2010 and the list of dates for your diary  on link above.

We had a magical end to Autumn  term: The performances were all highly enjoyable and a true reflection of the school and it's staff. Well done all those who took part.

Quite surprisingly, in the Summer of 2010, the school will have been open for 30 years! A celebration of this landmark is planned.

   Each half term we collect two black dustbin bags full of children's clothing. Please label all your child's clothing! We can then return it very easily!
