Date: Friday 4th March 2016 Buildings update Cladding is now being put up around our new dining room, work inside will start next week. The roof and brick work on the new sports hall is complete. The colour of the cladding and brick work is the final finish. The only thing left will be to decided is what plants to have around the new build. Transport to school We are having constant complaints from our neighbours about parking outside school. It is a real concern that someone will get knocked over if this current situation is not resolved and that parents/carers will receive parking tickets. Please be aware of your surroundings when dropping off and collecting your children from school. Police have informed us that most of the cars outside school live within a 5 minute walk to school. Now the weather is brightening up please consider walking to school to help the congestion. School Nurse Our school nurse will be here on Thursday 10th March. Please come along to speak to her if you have any concerns about your child. The drop in will be available from 8.30 till 9.15.

Letters that are sent home from school will now also be available for you to print off at home from our website.
