WOW!! £2184 raised!!

A huge thank you to everyone who supported our Nativity and Christmas Concert. We raised a huge amount that will go towards providing our pupils with valuable learning experiences within the school.

The pupils were absolutely amazing and did us proud.

Hamper Winners were announced this morning and everyone has been contacted.

Just a reminder that we close at 2.30 on Friday 20^th December. All pupils who go home in a bus or taxi will be collected from school at 2pm.

We will be leaving the school at 9:15 am and returning as soon as the service is finished. If we do not get enough helpers we will not be able to have our Christmas service at the church.
