  On Friday  1st March Year 5 hosted a Fairtrade coffee morning in school. Parents were invited into school for a cup of tea or coffee to help support the Fairtrade foundation. This organisation is committed to improving the lives of the farmers and workers who produce much of our food. Fairtrade is about better prices, decent working conditions and fair terms of trade for farmers and workers in low-income countries around the world.

  Thank you to all our parents who came to support this event and to Year 5 for organising the morning so well.

• Year 5 Residential to PGL Boreatton Park

  Mon 04 Mar 2024 JD

  Year 5 had an amazing 3 days last week at Boreatton Park which is a multi activity adventure centre set in the Shropshire Countryside.

  The children took part in many outdoor activities  over the 3 days but particuarly enjoyed the canoeing activity and the climbing wall. The evenings were spent having a sing song around a camp fire and playing  games.

  The entire trip was a complete success which we are sure the children will remember for years to come.
