Living our Values

We are empowered by our interculturalism 

Upcoming Events

Well-Being

Please encourage your child to continue reading for pleasure.  Fostering a love of reading is so important.  We get lots of questions from parents asking if it's still appropriate to read out loud to their child still.  The answer is YES and please do encourage them to still read aloud to you as well.  Reading together before bed can be a really wonderful way to wind down before sleep.  

Learning

To find out more about our term's learning, please do visit the year group curriculum page.  Also, if any parents have any connection to chocolate in their line of work, we would love to hear from you to see whether there is any way that we can draw upon your expertise.

Global Citizenship

If your child is able to read in another language, please encourage them to bring in a book in that language to share with their class.  We would like to celebrate all of the languages that our children can speak and provide opportunities for them to share this with their peers.
