Dear Parents,

We had a beautiful Spring walk around the Abbey this morning. The magnolia tree and daffodils were in full bloom. 

Yesterday's visit to Strode Theatre was a huge success. The film was wonderful, and the children behaved impeccably. So proud!

Next Thursday is our Easter bonnet parade. If you could send your child to school with a decorated hat/hairband or a pair of bunny ears. If you could then please line the streets to the church and follow us into the church for our Easter service. 

I hope you are able to enjoy the Spring weather and spoil the special women in your family.  

Enjoy Mothering Sunday!

I hope you have a restful weekend, 

Kerry Devane

Easter Holiday News from Morrisons

I wanted to let you know about something we’re running in our café over the school Holidays.

From Monday 7th April for three weeks, customers can come into the Café at any time and get a free bowl of cereal and a piece of fresh fruit.  They just need to mention the Kellogg’s Breakfast Club.

There’s no age limit, and customers can come back on multiple days while stocks last.  We’ve set aside 50,000 breakfasts across the country.
