Sports day

School sports day will be held on Friday 24 June, from 5pm until 7pm, on the school field. The Key Stage 1 sports activities are: skipping, running and long jump. Sadly, there will be no egg and spoon race as we don’t have any eggs. Please keep your child’s PE kit in school until this day is over. There will be races for mummies and daddies; if you would like to enter, please tell the school office.

Yours sincerely,

Mr King and Mr Nigel

P.S. The children do not need to apply to do sports day.

Christmas concert

Dear parents of choir children,

Sooty wanted a new magic wand. Fozzie asked for a new joke book! Elmo asked for some toy cars. Here are some pictures of Santa’s grotto:
