Thanks for being patient with us. We've done a huge amount of work today and have finally received guidelines from the DfE and are a little better prepared for the week. Schools aren't closed, and in fact they're open to many families.... Quite a worry when this is supposed to be a lockdown that limits movement and transmission rates of [...]
I can't quite believe the timing, and irony, of my last blog at 4pm saying that we're ready and looking forward to everyone coming back in. What timing of this specific U-turn! We have now been tasked with something incredibly difficult to put in place, overnight, before our first day back. School will be open to children of Critical Workers [...]
Dear parents, Happy New Year to you all! I hope you’ve been able to enjoy the festive period with your family and enjoyed time together.

Merry Christmas! Someone new has just joined our school's nativity scene! Hope you have a lovely day and a wonderful Christmas break! One of our school values is that 'We Are A Community,' and we've got ‘Love your neighbour as yourself,' as our guiding Bible passage (Matthew 22 v.39). With this in mind, do make sure you phone and Zoom [...]

Thanks to Keri and Martina for such a delicious spread. Well done class 3 for a fantastic term; you've all worked hard and been so kind and supportive [...]
Christmas dinner... And a Christmas surprise...
Exciting last week at Preschool. More challenges from Mr Elf and a surprise visit from Father Christmas. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from everyone at Preschool.
When we came in from playtime, we saw that our classroom had turned into The Polar Express! All the children were given their own ticket and they climbed aboard! We watched the train pull out of the station and enjoyed the view as we made our way to The North Pole. We stopped for hot chocolate and even got to [...]
