The Story of the Green Team
Learning about growing your own food, is as important as learning maths, yet we don't write about it in our school reports. This video is a chance to celebrate this important aspect of our curriculum. Enjoy.   Thank you TA Reynolds for kindly sponsoring the seeds.
Is your Year 6 child leaving at the end of this year?
If you are contemplating enrolling your Year 6 child at another school for Year 7 in 2018, could you please complete this form?  Although we would be sad to see your child leave the school, we understand that parents will make this decision for a host of reasons and we are keen to understand them.  We would also like to get an accurate picture, as early as possible, of our student levels for 2018.  This will allow us to advertise free spaces and to staff the school correctly for the next year.  Please complete our survey by clicking on the following link :https://goo.gl/forms/2StYD2v9WKuHCXCN2
