News Year 6

A while back we posted the news story below about reading and our favourite places to read. 

Thank you to all the parents, carers and children who attended the initial meeting about the Year 6 residential trip 2022-23 last night. 

We started the week with an assembly led by Miss Binks focusing on the importance of being a great friend to others and what being a good friend looks like in practice.

The Year 6 team are very excited to announce that this academic year’s residential trip for Year 6 has been finalised!

Last week, year 5 had a Victorian day which many children enjoyed.
