from Nursery to Sixth Form
We have paused the Heads Words for the moment but please find below the historic news from 2021-22 below.
We had a fantastic day this week at BCA Zoo. Our day started with an exciting ride on the minibus or coach to the zoo not far from here in Pinkneys Green where we were met by a lovely lady called Emily who was our guide for the day.
I have to start this week’s bulletin with a wow, wow, wow. The nursery children were absolutely awesome on their sports day. It can be quite easy to think that these children are school age children with the way they coped with the morning.
