The P7s are going to The Garage on Tuesday 28 June to play a game of 10 Pin Bowling and have a Disco / Lunch.

They will leave the school around 11.10 am and walk to The Garage.  Children should be picked up from The Garage between 2.30 pm – 2.45 pm however, if this time is unsuitable your child will walk back to school with staff.

The cost of this outing should be £10 per pupil.  The school will subsidise this by paying half making the amount to be paid £5.00 per pupil to be paid through ParentPay.

Please complete form below stating who will be collecting your child.

Does your child have a school uniform that they have outgrown? Then why not drop into our school swap shop and swap it for another!

Based at the school reception, our swap shop is a great way for parents to donate or swap any school uniforms, jackets, bags, etc.

If you have any school uniform items, jackets, bags you wish to donate then please hand these into the school office by Monday 27th June 2022. Any donations of new, unopened underwear and socks we also be welcome.

There is a great selection of school jumpers, cardigans, polo shirts, etc. already on display so come in and take your pick!

We are celebrating receiving our 6th Green Flag by having a

Bring in your bike or scooter if you have one for the time trials.
