Headteacher's Message 

Dear Parents and Carers,

 

I had a wonderful start to the week watching the Year 1 children in their dance lesson on Monday morning, wearing their superhero capes!

 

It was great to welcome the English Hub into school this week, they were very impressed with the improvements in the teaching of phonics across the school. I can feel the different in the quality of teaching in phonics too – the children are really making progress.

 

Please be considerate of our neighbours when parking opposite the school, do not block dropped curbs. I am grateful to the police for their support with parking this week.

 

Have a lovely weekend. 

 

Best wishes, 

Maria Higgins

Interim Headteacher
