Many thanks to everyone for their good wishes, cards and gifts. We wish you all a very Happy Christmas. See you in the new Year!

• Weekly Uodate

  Fri 16 Dec 2016

  A BIG thank you to all the children in the choir. They sang beautifully at Dam House on Monday afternoon. On Thursday, following Meeting Point at Church, the choir went over to Church to perform again. Their singing again was fantastic. Thank you to Mrs Lowe for her work with the choir.

  On Wednesday morning we heard our musicians from Years 3 & 5 perform on the brass instruments and the ocarinas. Again, the children performed in front of a packed audience. Well done everyone! I continue to be really impressed with the music throughout school.   

  Many thanks to Sharon in the kitchen, and her helpers for our Christmas lunch on Wednesday. I would also like to say a special thank you to Caitlin, Mia and Tia from Year 6 who stayed behind to help clean the hall. Thank you girls.

  Each child has been given a letter today about the arrangements for next week. Please look at it carefully as each day things may be different for different year groups.

  Enjoy the week-end.

• Weekly Update

  Fri 09 Dec 2016

  Yesterday we had a group of our Y5 pupils taking part in a tag rugby competition at Leigh Sports Village. The team came 5th overall. Mrs Killeen said that the children were a credit to the school and really worked well as a team. There was some great passing which resulted in Harvey and Harrison scoring some great tries. Well done to: Harrison Teale, Harvey Shepherd, Lewis Hamilton, Matthew Follows, Aidan Dickenson, Amanda Sacaj, Olivia Gregory & Ellie Dugdale.

  This morning the choir from Bedford High School came to sing for us. Our own choir joined them to sing 'We wish you a Merry Christmas' and did a great job. We also had a big countdown to the switching on of our Christmas tree lights too!

  Next week the choir are going along to Dam House on Monday afternoon to sing a selection of Christmas songs- from approximately 2.00 to 3.00pm. On Wednesday morning we look forward to hearing our children from Y3 and Y5 perform in a music concert at 9.30am. We have our Christmas dinner on Wednesday too. On Thursday the choir will be singing in Church from 1.30 - 2.00pm at Meeting Point. On Friday the children in Y1,2 and 3 who have returned the forms will be having the flu nasal spray. Another busy week ahead. Have a lovely week-end.

• Weekly update

  Fri 02 Dec 2016

  That's 5 weeks of this half-term completed- with 3 more to go! All the children should have brought home a copy of November's newsletter and the results of the recent parent questionnaire. Please remind your child of the importance of bringing the letters home to keep you up-to-date with all that goes on in school.

  My Headteacher's Awards have gone today to Reception and Year 5. I am really proud of the way our Reception pupils are behaving at the moment. The children in Year 5 continue to make me proud too. On Thursday we had some visitors in Year 5 from the Ornithological Society. They were really impressed by Year 5's behaviour and attitude in the session. Well done! 

  Next week we have the final Open School Session on Tuesday morning at 9.30am when we welcome any prospective parents to look round. A group of year 6 pupils have been proudly showing our visitors round school. On Wednesday morning we welcome you to join us for the Year 4 & 6 Music Concert starting at 9.30am.

  I hope you all have a lovely week-end.
