Dear Parents and Carers
We are absolutely delighted to announce that our top playground has now reopened following its recent developments! The children have had a fantastic first few days exploring the new equipment and enjoying the refreshed play spaces. It has been wonderful to see their smiling faces and boundless energy as they make the most of these improved facilities. Thank you for your patience while the work was completed - it has certainly been worth the wait!
Throughout October, our school is proudly celebrating Black History Month with a rich focus on inspiring figures across the arts and literature. Every year group has been learning about an iconic writer or artist, exploring their incredible lives and creative legacies: Reception has been studying Benjamin Zephaniah; Year 1 has looked at Dapo Adeola; Year 2 has focused on Floella Benjamin; Year 3 has explored Alma Woodsey Thomas; Year 4 has learned about Lubaina Himid; Year 5 has studied Jean-Michel Basquiat; and Year 6 has focused on Maya Angelou. We will share some of their work in our Weekly Learning Gallery on the newsletter in a couple of weeks.
Finally, we send our warmest and biggest congratulations to Ms. Thorn and Mr. Taylor, who welcomed their beautiful baby boy, Parker, last week! We are thrilled to share that Parker and the whole family are doing wonderfully well. We wish them all an abundance of love, health, and happiness during this precious new chapter.
Warm regards
Hayley Mayers (Headteacher)
