Message from the Headteacher 

 Dear Parents/Carers, 

What a wonderful few days of sunshine we have had. The children loved playing outside. 

Thank you to the parents who have contributed plants for the outside area. We are for the first time being entered into the 'Glastonbury in Bloom' competition. We will be encouraging the children to look after the plants, including planting seeds. We still need lots more plants and soil if you are able to contribute. We have plenty of seeds. 

Thank you also to the families that have responded to the Parent/Carer survey. We now have 77 responses. Please do take the time to respond if you haven't already, so we can reach our target of 90. Maybe we could get to a 100!

Have a restful weekend and enjoy the sunshine.

Thank you for your support, 

Kerry Devane
