Year 4 Viking Day!
The children are having an amazing day so far with the Viking Man! They have been engrossed in his stories and sharing all the artefacts he has brought in for them to look at and handle.
The children look wonderful too in their Viking Costumes!
Library Books Overdue.
As we approach the end of term, can I ask everyone to search for any books that need to be returned to the school library and sets of Top Trump Cards which have been borrowed.
Please return them to your class teacher or to Mrs Breen in the library.
Thank you.

School Uniform Reminder
It is that time of year, when the weather gets warmer that children take off their sweatshirts when playing. Our caretaker picked up 11 sweatshirts from the yard at the end of the day but only 3 were named.
Please can I encourage you to name items of uniform so we can get them back to you.
Mrs Stanley has said there are a couple of pairs of glasses in the office which we would love to return to the child but they have not been claimed.
Thank you,
Mr Rotherham
