Monday 11th July

Welcome to our blog this week.

 

The children had a great time in their new classes at the end of last week and we hope this will lead to a smoother transition especially to those children who are moving up to the juniors.

 

Come and see photographs thinking about what makes a good person.

 

Thursday 14 July school trip

 We have our annual trip and please make sure you keep an eye on the weather we may need waterproofs or sun cream. The children can wear their own clothes and bring a packed lunch or order one from school. Please remember that they will need snacks instead of their normal playtime toast or fruit. Please do not send in their packed lunches bottles, fizzy drinks or sweets. I am sure we will have a fantastic time.
