It is lovely to see the sunshine and we hope it continues for the weekend.

As a Sunsafe school,  we would like to remind you that children should wear suncream, a sunhat and sunglasses, if possible. Children can bring suncream into school for their own use.

A sports bottle of water is also recommended and can be re- filled in school.

Thank you
