Save your empty bread bags please

A favourite activity during lunch is to use some tongs and fill up an empty bag with rubbish blowing around the school! It’s such a favorite that we have totally run out of collection bags. When you empty your bread bags, please tip out all the crumbs, turn the bag inside out (this stops the awful yeasty smell if stray crumbs remain) and send the bags to school with your child. Ask your children to bring the bags upstairs to Mrs Guest’s office where there is a big black tub waiting for the empty bags.

Many thanks!

Enterprise Day – Thursday 14th April

What a beautiful day it looks we’ll have for Enterprise Day! The students are super enthusiastic and their stalls look fantastic so far!

The forecast is 26 degrees and clear. Make sure students bring along a drink bottle, hat and an extra layer of sunscreen. While it is only 26 degrees, being outside for 2 hours can easily lead to a nasty sunburn without the appropriate precautions.

We look forward to seeing you all there! 🙂
