Dig Day/Open Garden 26th September 2015

Tue 29 Sep 2015

Last Saturday brought beautiful weather and a very successful DIg Day. Children and parents enjoyed exploring the Wildlife Area and collaborating on a range of projects. Volunteers both small and large, experienced landscapers and novice gardeners contributed to a lovely morning. Amongst many other achievements, we pruned the plum tree, cleaned up the pond, weeded the herb garden, strimmed the wildflower meadow and repaired the compost bins. The Foundation Stage Outside Area also received some attention and has been weeded, tidied and has been brightened up with some new bedding plants. A tea and cake break midway through the morning was enthusiastically received by all, especially the children! Thank you so much to all our willing volunteers. We hope to welcome even more of you at the next Dig Day on 16th October 2015.

Outstanding School

Thu 15 Jan 2015

We are pleased and proud to announce the outcome of our RE inspection. We were graded Outstanding in every category, receiving an outstanding grade overall. The children impressed the Inspector with their singing, comments about worship and their observation that relationships are harmonious. The report also noted the positive impact on the school of Rev Tim Garrett’s weekly assemblies, the leadership of RE by Mrs Patterson and Mrs Ramsland and how the spiritual development of the school community is supported by our ‘Praying Parents’ group.
