End of school year - Thank you

We have reached the end of the academic year and I would like to thank everyone for all their positive contributions to our school this year.

Our wonderful pupils who have made us smile and laugh everyday, our incredible staff who have worked so hard not only planning and teaching lessons but providing pastoral care, extra curricular activities, residential trips and so many creative and fun opportunities.

I would also like to thank our amazing office team who deal with everything that is thrown at them with good grace, patience and humour. Thank you to the midday supervisors who support the children for that very busy period in the middle of the day and thank you to the Governors who continue to give up their time as volunteers behind the scenes supporting and challenging the school leaders and ensuring that the education we provide for pupils is the best it can be.

To all those parents who over the year have offered their time and energy supporting the PTFA and the school staff through their encouragement and kindness - thank you so much. All of these positive contributions are what keep us going in the busy weeks and make our school the happy, loving community it is.

We have had an action packed last few weeks. Our amazing PTFA raised over £3,000 for the school at the summer fayre. Thank you to everyone who came along and enjoyed the evening. It was a lovely community event and it was so good to see everyone enjoying themselves.

Year 6 put on their final performance of The Greatest Show with some amazing performances and we all enjoyed burgers and hot dogs at the BBQ afterwards.

Year 6 have also had a day out at Bowood on Monday and we all enjoyed the picnic for Poppy yesterday on the field.

Mrs Boswell also did us proud organsing the Race for Life on Thursday.

Thank you to the Year 6 children who after listening to a  worship last week then decided to organise a cake sale completely independently for the charity supporting children in Kibera outside Nairobi in Kenya.

To everyone who has offered a cheery smile in the morning, thank you. A warm smile is the universal language of kindness. On behalf of all the staff we wish you a very, very happy summer.

Mrs J Woolley

Headteacher
