Houses<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Your child will be in one of our four ‘houses’. Each team gains points when pupils put our school values into action!<\/p>\n

The house logos were designed by pupils with the following meanings:<\/p>\n

School Mascot<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Our school mascots are called “Shorty” and “Sheree”. Pupils will see them appear on worksheets, displays and interactive presentations.<\/p>\n

Shorty will usually tell the pupils about their learning and Sheree will provide details on how they can be successful throughout lessons.<\/p>\n
