A huge well done to class 1 children especially our Reception children for successfully completing their first 8 weeks of school! We have shed many tears (children and teachers), but we have also made and shared many happy memories. Take a look at what we enjoyed doing in week 8.

For Child Led Worship, we were learning about how we can look after God's creation. We promised to do our part by picking up litter and ensuring we were not littering ourselves.
