Mr Cook joined us in September and is teaching our singing lessons every Wednesday. We cannot wait to have an opportunity to perform some of the songs we have learnt.
A red scooter has been collected from outside the Nursery area and we think it was taken to the wrong home. Please check that the scooter your child has brought home is theirs particularly if it is red. If you do find the scooter please do return it to the front office so we can reunite it with its owner.
We have a fully packed lost property box in the front office at the school, we are finding so many pieces of almost brand new clothing across the school that are unnamed, please pop into the front office to get your child’s clothing if you are missing any.
