Some highlights from this week
Middle School thoroughly enjoyed their first ‘Wild Wednesday’ of outdoor learning this week! Our newly appointed Year 6 Ambassadors have been proudly carrying out their duties around the school, wearing their badges and being an excellent example to the younger children. Many of the classes have loved exploring our wonderful library with Miss Meyer and are sharing their favourite books with each other.
