Sunshine!

We’ve been able to go on the field for a few lunchtimes this week. It’s been great and children have been very keen! Hopefully we can do plenty more lunchtimes on the field over the coming weeks.

Please make sure your child has a hat or cap in school if we are due some sunshine. Long-lasting suncream can be put on at home to save children having to bring some into school themselves and put it on themselves.

See you again next week.

Year 1 Artwork

Year 1 have been reading the book ‘Beegu’. Here is some artwork based on what they think Beegu’s home planet looks like. Some fab art work from Year 1!

Foley Arms Parking

The management from the Foley Arms pub have contacted us regarding cars on the car park at drop offs and collection.

They have reported some dangerous and inconsiderate driving, and a report of one child nearly being hit during one of these incidents.

They have said that if these incidents continue, then they will have no choice but to stop all parental parking on the car park at these times.

Obviously, that’s not something we want to happen so please be considerate of others at these times.

Thank you

Forest School

Forest School
It’s been a glorious week in the woods today with the lovely warm sun. 
Both Reception and Year 3 have celebrated Earth Day. They planted seeds, litter picked, hugged trees and we made a pledge on how we can take even more care of our world. 
They enjoyed pizzas on the fire and together we told a story acting it out together. 
After School Forest Fun 
We have a family session next Tuesday after school, to book your tickets please follow the link 
Family Festival
I shall also be hosting another family festival in May half term. Tickets will go on sale this evening at 8pm  and I have secured some funding so children tickets will be reduced by 50% and only be £10 for them to play all day! Tickets will be limited so don’t miss out. 
Booking via link above. 
Have a lovely weekend
