Wrens and Puffins news
Wrens and Puffins have enjoyed sharing the story 'Zog' by Julia Donaldson and finding out about knight, castles and dragons. We have made our own shields and crowns, role-played as Doctors, made our own potions and created some dragon eggs!
We really love our Friday art afternoons with Mrs Taylor. Have a look at our very own 'art gallery'.

In the event of school closure:
On rare occasions, it may be necessary to close the school. This may be due to adverse weather conditions or perhaps when essential school services cannot be provided –e.g. heating, plumbing or water.
Please refer to the School’s Bad Weather Policy on our website for information regarding how we communicate a school closure.
Class teachers will then initiate home school learning activities, and these will be available to children by 10am of the same morning.
