Posted by parentcouncil in : Parent Council , 3comments A big thank you to everyone involved in the May Fair whether you helped out in anyway or just came along on the day and supported us. The weather held out for us and we had lots of fun, especially Miss Lawson & Miss Fleming who suddenly became the most popular teachers in the school for 15 minutes when they became targets on the wet sponge throwing. Due to everybody’s efforts we managed to raise a FANTASTIC £1050.00 and this money will be put to good use within school and nursery. Thanks again.The long awaited Health Week photos. May 25, 2009

Apologies for the delay in posting some photos of Health Week.
I thoroughly enjoyed Health Week, and thank you to everyone for being so enthusiastic about all the activities.
Early Morning Aerobics was such a hit, it is going to be a regular thing!
Friday mornings at 8.45am at the side playground (by the Wildlife Garden). Parents, bring your trainers!
