This week has been a busy end to term. On Tuesday the whole school got involved in Community Day. Groups made friendship bracelets, tried mindful `no peek` drawing, heard from the RNLI about water safety, took part in dance, football, litter picking, a drum workshop and reading to pupils at our neighbours, Appletree Gardens and many other activities.
We hope all our families enjoy a well deserved break and we`ll see you back in school on April 20th.
