Our value in Collective Worship at the moment is

Compassion

As we wrap up this term, I'd like to wish everyone a very merry Christmas. May this holiday season be filled with warmth, love, and precious moments with family and friends.

Our final week of festive celebrations included a whole school pantomime trip, filling the air with laughter and cheer. The carol service was a heartwarming display of our pupils' singing and reading talents, bringing the spirit of Christmas to life. We were also delighted to welcome some very special visitors - Santa himself and his oldest Elf! - spreading smiles and presents across the school.

Today we also celebrated our pupils of the term. Well done.

Please note that we return to school on Monday 6th January 2025. Until then, stay safe and enjoy the break!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Headteacher

Attendance

Today, 46 pupils celebrated 100% attendance since returning to school after the October half-term holiday.

24 pupils celebrated 100% attendance since starting school back in September.

Excellent. I wonder who will receive 100% attendance next half-term?
