I can not believe we have come to the end of another Term. The children have grown so much, not just in height, but also in character! The love, understanding and compassion that is shown to one another on the playground is so humbling to witness. The children have shone out with all those little acts of kindness to make a difference to some ones day. Let’s Celebrate!

Another fun packed week has passed and the delight of having time to just be has been ever present on the playground. Imaginations have run wild, sporting skills finely tuned and the collaboration of ideas to invent new games. We have had a flock of seagulls swooping and calling out, as the Year 4 children reenact The Tempest. Spiderman has been swinging through the tower blocks and T-rex’s on the loose! What ever the children have played, they have done so with love in their hearts and a smile on their face. Year 6, have started clubs again for this half term and are providing an array of opportunities for the lower Keystage 2 children. Thank you Year 6 for giving up your lunchtimes to do this, the children are loving the activities you provide!
Let’s Celebrate!
