Due to wet weather this years family picnic was held indoors. Lots of our families came along to have lunch together with their kids. We were delighted to see such a great turn out in spite of the rain – thank you!

Sports also had to be cancelled this week due to wet weather and our sports area grass being water logged but, not to worry there are still upcoming events for all pupils.

Well done to the winners of the Parent Council Raffle too! Here are some photo’s from our Family Picnic.
