Please can we remind families that we ask that healthy breaktime snacks are sent into school for the children.

Fruit is an obvious healthy snack but there are other great suggestions here: https://www.nhs.uk/healthier-families/food-facts/healthier-snacks/

What a wonderful time the children have had today. There have been lots of waggy tails and wet noses. It’s been a purrrfect day all round!

A huge thank you those parents who were able to bring in pets to share. Sorry we could get everyone to be able to do so but that just wouldn’t have been possible. Hopefully, all children have had the chance to talk about their pet and learn about how we care for our furry friends (feathered and scaly too). Please look at you child’s year group page on the website to see some wonderful pictures!

Reverend Merry led worship this morning with the theme of pets.

A huge thank you to Jelly Exotic Pets, who have been in school today. All children have had the chance to visit their workshop and learn about caring for exotic pets. If you wish to learn more about them, here is the link to their site.

A mixed set of results for our two teams today – 22/1/25.

Our Year 3/4 team came away from Redhill School with a 6-0 win – which sees them through to the next stage of the competetion, but unfortunately our Yr 5/6 team lost 3-1.

Mr Humphries and Mr Morris were thrilled with how both teams performed both on and off the pitch and couldn’t be more prouder about either team! Both teams we’re commended for their excellent attitudes and behaviour!

Well done boys!
