Receiving this letter from one of our lovely year 6s this morning actually made me cry a tear or two. I had this little girl in a class when she was 4 and now she’s ready for high school! Melted my heart❤️ @5tAndrews

This week in year 2 we trialled a competition to enable a calmer lunchtime. To earn points the children have to follow rules daily but can also loose points if a rule is broken. The canteen has been left cleaner, we’ve had a lot less food waste and good behaviour🤩 @sapsyear2
