Friday 12 September 2025 Friday 12th September 2025 Wow! We have had a fabulous first full week of school. The children are settling in really well and adjusting to the new full-time timetable. It has been a joy to watch new friendships forming, and there have been so many memorable moments where the children have shown off their skills during child-initiated play.

Friday 5 September 2025 Kangaroos Friday 5th September 2025 What super Kangaroos we have! The children have had a fantastic start to their school journey. They should feel really proud of themselves. They have all come in and settled well and are already getting used to some of the classroom routines. It has been lovely seeing them explore the classroom inside and out and beginning to form new friendships. They had great fun playing on the trim trail at playtime and all got on so well with their lunch in the hall. They carried their lunches like experts without any spillages!
