Week Ending 18th September 2020

Despite the worries over COVID-19 symptoms and one class closure, we remain upbeat and positive in school. We appreciate the support from the school community and hope that everyone continues to follow the guidance and keep safe. 

The children have been exceptionally sensible this week and have dealt with their worries well too! They have been asking some great questions and are curious about how to stay even safer and how to protect their families! We are VERY proud them. 

This week, we re-introduced the Rainbow Rewards assemblies in classes (as we can't gather together in the hall) and it has been super to hear how children are meeting the Rainbow Values and how important they are for school and live.

A reminder of our Vision, Aims and Rainbow Values, if you could reinforce these with your children at home please:
