Weekly News Update

Dear all, 

It has been a busy week for our Bloom Leaders, who have been preparing for judging day today.

Thank you to everyone who donated plants. We were overwhelmed by your kindness and even had to source more pots! We are incredibly proud of our grounds and the positive impact they have on our children.

When we first began our journey to improve the front grounds, we had very few visits from bees or other wildlife. Today, however, we were delighted to see bumblebees galore and even a dragonfly. I truly believe that the environment is thriving, and our children and wider community have played a huge part in making our grounds bloom beautifully.

I am now off home to relax with a gin and tonic in my own garden!

Enjoy the lovely weather this weekend.

Thank you, as always, for your continued support.

Kerry Devane (Headteacher)
