• New enhancement events

  Wed 25 Jan 2023 Mrs Grindrod

  Dear All,
  Just to update you on some more, in school events.

  On the 14th February we are having a visit from Andy Tooze, a published, performance  poet. He will be working with the children across school  in order to write their own poetry. After school there will be a chance for children to buy his book which is £5. We are absorbing the cost of his visit so there will be no cost to parents.

  On the 26th April, KS2 will take part in a 'disabilities awareness' workshop with Bart Gee. A gentleman who has overcome disabilities in order to achieve success.  Again, there will be no charge for this workshop.

• Our next SEND Coffee Morning Catch-Up will be on Tuesday 7th February. All Welcome.
