Coming up to Christmas, we won't be able to gather and walk around the village to collect our Nativity Characters as in previous years. But Christmas will still happen, even if very differently, and we want to give this Nativity to our community to brighten up all our Christmases! It always thrills me, as Rector, how creative our families are [...]
We're introducing an extra request for our return to school and would like your support please.Covid-19 cases have risen over the past week, there's an increase of tier 2 and 3 areas and families may have used the half term break to travel too. We also know that children may not be aware that their temperature is high and that [...]
A school break, but there's always something happening to keep it all maintained and looking ship shape. I had a quick maintenance visit today with my handy little helpers. A little bit of fun may have been had on the new "Crinkle Crags" Climber, but we managed to power wash the gazebo ready for a coat or two of something, [...]

Level 1 had them all put through their paces out on the playground, starting, stopping swerving, emergency stopping and also trying to master riding with just one arm on the handlebar. Level 2 was much [...]

The photo that above shows last year's Yr6 who managed to get a good two weeks' worth of playing on it before they left us for the summer. The Climber replaces [...]
Don't forget, we're still collecting items for Harvest. Thank you to those that have brought items in so far. Any tins, packets or sachets from either the back of your cupboard, those that are surplus or something you buy on purpose for this... are all really appreciated, thank you! Produce will be taken to the local Food Bank by Rev. [...]
Keri and Martina had a delivery of homegrown cucumbers in the kitchen today. So they were cleaned and prepped and put in the salad bar... I had them on my lunch too (very nice). Thanks to Class One who picked them and brought them over!
