End of Term Fun

1st April 2021

World Book Day 2021- a little different this time- like most things this past academic year! It was important to us as a school, however, to ensure that we still gave the children the opportunity to dress up and celebrate their favourite characters and celebrate the incredible love of reading that we have seen blossoming…

Resilience

31st March 2021

I write this as we approach the end of quite an unusual term and definitely one that has tested our resilience as a community. We arrived in early January only to be told that we would be in Lockdown the next day. I was astounded how well our children were able to once again, without…

Open Mindedness

Mr Hibbert’s Christmas Message

18th December 2020

  This year has been like no other. We’ve learnt so much about ourselves and those around us. We’ve laughed. We’ve cried. We’ve clapped. We’ve Zoomed. And we’ve Google Meeted A LOT! And what we’ve learnt is that no one has all the answers. Not even the Prime minister. But as never before we have…

A Letter to Santa

15th December 2020

A letter to Santa This year, for the first time in over 40 years, I wrote a letter to Santa. And it worked! Within a couple of days of writing it, my wish was partially granted. I am now utterly convinced that the remaining parts of my wish will also happen and we will have…
