    As I write it is feeling somewhat November-ish on the weather front after a lovely start to the week – brr.

    In this final week we have really enjoyed some very special moments despite the continued topsy- turvy of the COVID restrictions. It was brilliant to see the children reunited albeit virtually to say ‘goodbyes’ and ‘hellos’ as part of our Transition work. Teaching Staff ha...

    A rather drizzly, grey week but good for all the gardens, plus our lovely rainbow planters which are looking fantastic outside school – have a walk or cycle past to admire them if you can.  I came into school early one morning and saw a deer and an owl en route and then a snuffling hedgeh...
