Message from the Headteacher

Thank you very much to the parents who contributed to the Reading Workshop vote. Due to the response, we will run the workshop at 2pm and 5pm on Wednesday 25th September. The session will run for approx 1 hour. Both sessions will be in the school hall. Refreshments will be provided. This is an excellent opportunity for you to find out how to support your child with reading at home. There will also be a raffle prize draw for all those who attend. 

Our school gardeners have asked if you could please contribute Spring bulbs and plants that will brighten up our playground through the Autumn and Winter months. Any contributions will be greatly received. 

Don't forget it's our first PTA meeting of the year today at 3.15pm. 

Thank you for your continued support, 

Kerry Devane
