Please have a look at the excellent video made by some of our wonderful children outlining just some of the fabulous learning done in our school about the Global Goals for Sustainable Development. It has been submitted to 'Global Citizenship School' for their One-Minute-Video initiative - 'What we did for the world - Turning Learning into Action'.

Don't forget! We are inviting all parents/carers to join us this Wednesday 1st May for a fun Maths session in your child's class. We will play some games and have lots of fun. The games will be prepared for you and the teachers will show you what you need to do. You can even bring them home to play afterwards. We look forward to seeing lots of you there.

Our boys' football team had another match on Friday. Have a look at this brilliant goal from Ruben in 6th Class!
