Tributes to the Queen

Mrs Ashcroft-Gardner is in London today and has taken down all the tributes that the children have made this week for the Queen. The children's thoughtful messages, pictures and prayers now lay alongside thousands of others as a mark of respect and celebration of the Queens remarkable life. A huge thank you to Mrs Ashcroft-Gardner for taking them for us and to the children and staff for their hardwork and meaningful messages. Rest in Peace your Majesty and thank you for your service.

Y6 Church Visit - Eucharist Service

Year 6 had a great time in church this morning learning all about the Eucharist service with Rev Kev. We helped to set up the church, tried the unblessed wafers to see what they taste like, and then stayed for the service - Rev Kev even asked us to help out with a Bible reading! Well done Mark and Amy! And very well done to all the children, your behaviour was wonderful and so respectful, and I was very proud
