Just a reminder that the heat wave is returning so we are encouraging all families to ensure children are ready. Please come in PE kit unless otherwise informed by class teachers and ensure hats/caps are worn, water bottles filled up and suncream is applied before school. We will endeavour to provide shade at breaktimes and be mindful of additional breaks. We have a busy schedule which we will hope to maintain but do so safely. Parents coming to evening KS2 performances, please come dressed/prepared for hot weather conditions. Water bottles, etc. will be needed.

What a delightful to be able to share our recent inspection report which highlights that 'Pupils and adults flourish because leaders place learning 'for life in all its fullness' at the centre of their decision making. Please do read our inspection report on our website.

We see trying to look outward and think beyond ourselves. This week, Pauline and Simon Kay shared how KISA are hoping to transform lives in Great Hope School by providing solar lights rather than using dangerous kerosene lamps. Children can complete their homework safely if we help them. Each light costs £7 and we would like to support them in buying 250 lamps for the children at Great Hope School. We have already heard how water filters are transforming lives and now we can help in a different way. #help #courageousadvocacy #changelives
