Children’s achievements are widely celebrated across the school. It is a pleasure to award assembly certificates and to share successes. We encourage parents/carers to share their child’s achievements out with school by using the link below.

Miss Regan spoke at our sports assembly about her career as a Commonwealth gymnast. She told the children how sport can take you on so many amazing journeys, making new friends, keeping you fit and teaching you new skills. She even treated us to a demonstration! # inspirational
We would like to say a huge thank you to all our children, staff and families. In what has been an uncertain week, everyone has shown kindness and worked together, keeping the children's wellbeing at the heart of all they have being doing ❤️.
