Latest Headteachers Blog

Dear Parents,

Thank you to my three pupil Headteachers who helped me to run the school last Friday, they were very efficient and business-like! The children won the chance to be a pupil Headteacher after winning a story competition which was organised by Jack Taylor in Y5. As a school we are always keen to encourage the children to show initiative and take on responsibility as part of their service to our local community, so well done to these children.

Thank you to parents and members of the community who attended the governor Strategic Vision Workshops on Tuesday; we have received lots of suggestions and feedback and will be reviewing these in the next few weeks. We will then share the results with you.

Have a lovely weekend,

Valerie Elliott
