Well-Being

This term we have been celebrating people who make our school a better place. Small things like smiling, saying hello, stopping to listen, holding open a door etc can make a huge difference in our every day lives and on our Well-Being. 

Well done to all of those students who have been nominated by their peers so far this term.

Birthdays:

Nut free Primary School

For some children, any exposure to nuts is potentially very dangerous and can be life threatening.

We do not allow any nuts to be brought into Primary. This includes snacks on school transport, birthday treats and food items brought in for any other special days.

Happy birthday to the Year 6 students celebrating their birthday this week.
