In our effort to reduce, reuse and recycle, we welcome you to take advantage of our school’s “Uniform Exchange”, where we have a large resource of good quality used uniform which is available to any family who needs it, completely free! 

Whether your child/children need shirts, polo shirts, skirts, trousers, pinafores, shoes or jackets, we have items to fit all ages. 

Due to current restrictions it is not possible to come into the school to visit the Uniform Exchange, so should you be interested in /require  any items please get in touch with the school office who will be happy to assist.

If you gave permission for your child/children to receive the flu immunisation, this will be administered in school on Friday 22nd November . 

Please check schoolbags as pupil photographs have been given out to all classes today.
