Team Beat

We were really lucky today to have a performance from TeamBeat. They were amazing African drummers, who sang songs, showed us instruments and talk about their country. We even got to have a go ourselves. Check out our pictures to see what an amazing time we had.

Returning to School

What a rollercoster of a week it has been, I hope that you are all safe and well, and that all your houses are OK. I hope that you and all your family are beginning to feel a little less shaken. My family are all safe and sound, and with no damage to our houses, just the odd crack in the ceiling and broken glasses etc. Most of my street is still in one piece, just a crack across the road.
We (the staff) are meeting tomorrow to discuss how we can support your children with their transition back to school and how we can help them feel as safe and happy as possible. Keep an eye on the school website too as there are some really useful tips to help with any anxious children.
Please let me know if you feel your child has been particularly upset by the recent events, so we can cater to their needs at school.
Keep safe
