Head teacher's Update
We had a fantastic time with Year 6 last weekend at PGL. The children again behaved immaculately and were a credit to you and our school. Many of them overcame anxieties about heights or water or even just being away from home - it was wonderful to see.
Yesterday I popped in to our new Reception class to say hello and sing a song with them in preparation for our 'Reception Welcome Assembly' on Monday; already they look like a really nice class full of interesting characters to add to our school. I'll look forward to presenting an assembly with them on Monday.
Our worship theme is 'Friendship':
Friends show their love in times of trouble not happiness.' - Euripides

WHEELCHAIR BASKETBALL CHAMPIONS
On Wednesday last week some of our amazing children from year 5 and 6 went to compete in a wheelchair basketball competition. This was a great opportunity for them as they had the chance to experience what it was like to be a para-Olympian! The children really enjoyed the experience and were thrilled that they won!!! We are so proud of them. Even more pleasing is the positive comments from the organisers who said the children were a credit to the school for how well they behaved and played as a team. We hope to add some photos soon.
WELL DONE- Rahma, Reem, Ameen, Jason, Ghaleb, Maddison, Alexia and Fatima!
