Thank you Year 1

Today is my last day teaching the Year 1 bubble and so I wanted to congratulate the children on working so hard and on coping so well with the transition back to school. I have loved getting to know them and can’t wait to be their teacher in September when I will welcome them back as part of the Year 2/3 class. Mrs Mottram also wished to join me in thanking you for your thoughtful cards and gifts. They have been much appreciated as has all the support we have received during this time. Have a wonderful summer!

Best Wishes, Miss Pinches

Happy Birthday Lily and Alice!

Happy Birthday Lily and Alice! We hope you both have a wonderful day celebrating with your families.
