Across the school children dressed in pyjamas and shared their favourite stories and books. This was a fantastic day with a great focus on reading. Thank you to School Council for organising, arranging and coming up with the idea!

Astronights Trip
On Friday 11th October, a group of 14 children from years 3 to 6 enjoyed an overnight stay at London’s Science Museum where they learnt about all things space! The trip started as all trips should – with tea! From here, we dropped our overnight things off and started our evening activities. The children (and adults) were wowed with explosions, fire, rockets and fantastic explanations of the museum’s exhibits.
