A frosty start to the half term… but a warm welcome back!
Our focus value for our Collective Worship this half term is Peace and our Keeping Children Safe in School theme is Keeping Safe on the Road. Winter is l’hiver in French! Have you booked up for the Parents Evening yet?
As a school we support Samaritan’s Purse: Operation Christmas Child Shoebox Appeal. The children watched an assembly today about all the good work this charity does and how we can get involved. Decorated and filled boxes should be returned to school on this week (along with a suggested £5 donation which covers essential costs and shipping). https://www.samaritans-purse.org.uk/what-we-do/operation-christmas-child/
