Welcome back!

We hope that you all had a lovely half term break, we are excited to see all the children back in school for this second half term full of fun, celebrations and festivities.

Our key texts this half term are:

Our Forest School day is Thursday. Please bring a pair of wellies into school (preferably to keep in school) and bring a coat / waterproof clothing to change into if the weather is wet.
