As we come to the end of another wonderful term and school year, we would like to thank you for your continued support throughout the year.
The children have enjoyed lots of exciting learning and have especially loved spending time outdoors in the garden, exploring nature, and making the most of the sunny weather.
During the recent heatwave, the children have thoroughly enjoyed water play. They had great fun pouring, splashing, paddling, filling and emptying containers. It has been a wonderful way of keeping cool.
We wish all our children and families a happy, safe, and relaxing summer holiday.
We would also like to say a special goodbye to our school leavers as they move on to their reception classes, we are so proud of everything they have achieved and wish them every success and happiness in their next adventure.
We look forward to welcoming our returning children back next term.
Best wishes, Nicky
