Forthcoming Meeting
Eco Fashion Show
The Eco Committee have been thinking of ways to encourage other children to recycle. They prepared a PowerPoint presentation explaining the materials that can be recycled, and reminded everyone about the materials St Cadoc’s recycle. They also held a ‘Rubbish Runway’ fashion show. Each model wore an outfit made from a recyclable material to demonstrate that recycling can be fun!
Welcome Back!
Welcome back everyone. There is a meeting of the Parent Council in school at 7pm this evening. Please watch out for an important letter from the Parent Council, in the school bags today.
“Goodbye Mrs Brotherhood!”
Many of you will already know that Mrs Brotherhood, one of our depute head teachers is retiring at the end of term. Mrs Brotherhood has been a member of staff here at St Cadoc’s for 28 years and is highly regarded by staff, pupils and parents alike. She will be greatly missed by us all and we wish her a long, happy and well deserved retirement.
