Message from the Headteacher 

 Dear Parents/Carers,

It's really important that you are involved in your child's education. Can I please ask you to come along to the Maths workshop on Weds 1st May at 2:15 - this is for all parents of year 1 and year 2 children. This will give you guidance on how to support your child at home as well as give you a better understanding of what they are learning. 

The PTA are working hard to raise vital funds towards improving the outdoor learning space for our children. Please support them by coming along to our next event which is a quiz night. There will be a sausage and chip supper and a bar and tickets are only £5 each. Teams can be up to 6 people. See poster below. This will be the first quiz night we have held, and we really want it to be a success. We are also planning our Summer fair on Friday 7th June. If you run or work for a business that could donate a raffle prize, we would be very grateful. 

Have a restful weekend.

Thank you for your support, 

Kerry Devane
