Firstly, congratulations to all our super Year 6’s who have shown amazing positivity and resilience during their first two days of SATs. I am always blown away by their can-do attitude and enthusiasm to show themselves at their best.  We wish them all the very best as they take on the maths papers over the next two days.

The end of the week will see our fantastic football team heading off to Derby, for the national schools’ football finals.  This is an incredibly exciting opportunity for the children and we are indebted to the generous sponsors who have made this trip possible.  Please see below for information on how all of the team will be looking that part in their new tracksuits, kindly sponsored by Piers at the Football Fun Factory.  We will be sharing more about who kindly helped the team get to Derby in next week’s newsletter.  We wish the whole team, Mrs Churchill, Mr Davis and all the family and friends who will be travelling with them, a safe trip and a fantastic day!

We are so proud of Sally Furniss, our wonderful Chair of Governors, who was invited to the King’s Garden Party in recognition of her service to the community and to our school.  Sally has been part of supporting and leading our school for over 25 years and has shown incredible commitment to helping all of the pupils have the best possible education and primary experience the school can offer.  We are delighted that she has been recognised for all her voluntary support. This is not the first time one of our school community has been recognised for their kindness and generosity.  Last year, Mr and Mrs Beadle were also invited to the garden party. We are very proud of them all.

With kind hearts and determined minds, we inspire each other to be the best we can be.
