Over the last two weeks, the children in Nursery have been gaining some great skills as gardeners and have helped to create a new garden in our outdoors area.  They have planted many seeds including sunflowers, beans, daisies, courgettes, pumpkins, carrots, strawberries, potatoes and onions.  They have been learning all about looking after plants and have watered the seeds every day. They can’t wait for them to start to grow and to be able to eat our home grown vegetables! The children have made some fantastic observations and predictions about how tall they think the plants will grow.

Our team were so proud on Wednesday and enjoyed meeting and greeting parents from both the past and present. It was lovely to hear nostalgic stories about our school from as far back as the 1940’s. Some former pupils even met up who sat beside each other many, many years ago. One of our families had four generations who all came to our school, all present at the event and their granddaughter currently attends school now. Many thanks to the amazing support we have received from our parents, thank you to Jay’s mum and The Town Team for baking and decorating beautiful Birthday Cakes for our celebration. The children and staff are looking forward to enjoying these tomorrow! Thank you to our friends of the school who did a great job organising the day. Thank you of course to Mrs Graham who has enabled, encouraged and supported everyone throughout this event. We had over 500 visitors!!

The school council want to make sure our school entrance is as pleasant as possible. They have designed some posters to remind everyone how to do this.
