Spectacular Christmas Performances
Both the infant (Countdown to Christmas) and junior (Scrooge) Christmas performances were outstanding! We are so lucky to have such talented children in our school.
Thank you to all parents and carers for their support with costumes etc and for all your very positive comments about the shows – they are very much appreciated by all.
Thank you also for your generous donations to the collection, we raised £287, which will go towards our playground developments.
