  • Keepsake Tea Towels - we have launched these for Mother's Day - but they are for anyone, anytime... They have wobbly self portraits from all the children and they will be assembled into year groups for memories to keep for years! Purchase on classlist
  • World Book Day - we need some help. If you can help in the cafe before school, to set out books for the children after drop-off, or in the playground at pick up please join the WhatsApp group. But if we don't get some more Cafe volunteers we will have to cancel it.
    • Cafe - we're hoping (with volunteers) to run our usual fun cafe in the morning (08.00 - 08.55). This will be open for breakfast items and treats!
    • Wonka Bars - a chance to win a Golden Ticket! (Prize list on classlist soon) first come first served! Being sold at Cafe then any remaining in Playground
