School Journey We had a brilliant week at Ashford with our Year 6 pupils. They were extremly well behaved and I was very proud of them. However, we were very disappointed with the accommodation and service that we received, hence our move to PGL for next year. The children were well fed and exhausted by the time we had finished. Looking forward to next year!!!
PLG meeting for Year 5 Parents Following comments from parents, we have moved the Year 5 meeting for next year’s school journey to Thursday 3rd Nov at 5pm. We understand that many people will be trick or treating on Monday so we have done our best to give more people the opportunity to come along.
School Values
High expectations Good manners, politeness and respect Treating others the way we want to be treated Pride in ourselves, our work and our school Trying our best
Reminder A reminder to all parents and pupils- No pokemon cards are to be brought into school! Thank You
