Headteacher’s Comments
We almost filled the theatre at last night’s performance of The Lion King! 161 parents and children had a thoroughly enjoyable trip. The show was fantastic!

World Book Day
We are celebrating World Book Day on Friday 8 March. We would like all children to come dressed up as their favourite book character.
Inappropriate Language
A number of teachers have again spoken to me about the use of inappropriate language by children, for example swearing and use of sexual terms. Please be careful what internet websites, television programmes, DVDs and computer games your child is exposed to. Also, if you do hear your child repeating anything inappropriate, please reinforce that it is unacceptable. I would appreciate your support in this matter.
