Thank you for taking part everyone.  As soon as the school office has finished counting the money raised and donated we will let you know the amount.  We will then send the information to Speed Challenge who will then forward certificates and footballs to those who raised £25.00 and over.  The children had great fun competing for the fastest speed.  The fastet boy and girl in each class have been published in the newsletter.

Important Notice about Netball, Football & Tag Rugby Clubs

‘Our Continental Harvest’

Well done to all the children and their teachers for presenting to us a very different and imaginative harvest, this year.  The 5 continents of Asia, Africa, Australasia, Europe and the Americas followed the theme from the work we have being doing with the Royal Opera House Creative Partnerships.  The wonderful continental food was also a treat which was shared with our parents at the end of the Harvest.  Thank you everybody!
