Message from the Headteacher 

 Dear Parents/Carers, 

Thank you to the parents that attended the Maths Workshop on Wednesday. It was very well received. Mrs Veevers has made the PowerPoint available for anyone who was unable to attend. Please continue to practice essential Maths skills at home using NUMBOTS. If you are unable to access your child's account, please ask your child's teacher. 

Parent Consultations were also very well attended last week. If you were unable to make the days and times offered, please send a message or speak to the class teacher. 

It really is important to us that you are involved with your child's education. If you feel there is anything else we could do to support your family, please let us know. With this in mind, I would be very grateful if you fill in a Parent Survey. We last did this in November and would like to collect your responses for a second time, so we can continue to reflect on your important views as key stakeholders.   Please click on the link below.
