First week back will be WEEK 1
Remember we are on half term break next week Year six have had a great time at Hollowford! The Year six children were great ambassadors for the school. They faced up to some real challenges and developed a team spirit over the two nights away. Highlights included “The Leap of Faith,” Rafting, with various degrees of success but some inventive ideas and Rock Weaselling in the rain and the great outdoors. .
