Please come along to our International Day – a free event to celebrate the diversity of our wonderful school community. We are delighted to be funded by (and give a huge thank you for) our “Big Lottery Celebrate” grant…. so the whole event won’t cost you a penny!

If you can / want to, please dress in something showing your heritage or national colours (whether it’s a football top or a fez) to make the day as colourful as possible.
