• Author and firefighter visit

  Wed 28 Feb 2024

  On Tuesday 27th February, we were very lucky to receive a visit from local author Angela Chater. She visited Reception, Year 1 and Year 2.  The children loved hearing her book- Stanley's Incredible Journey. Once Angela finished reading her book, children then participated in a workshop to inspire a love a reading. 

   

  As well as this, our Year 4 children had a team of local firefighter them. The firefighters discussed fire safety and highlighted the importance of children knowing escape routes during different scenarios that they might encounter at home and the procedures for reporting a fire when discovered. They also identified fire hazards in the home and learned about the correct place to position smoke detectors (hall and landing). Finally, children practised the stop, drop and roll and discussed why this was effective in putting out a fire

• 2K Parent/Carer Evening

  Tue 06 Feb 2024

  Due to a family circumstance, we must postpone Miss Koumi's parents / carer evening Wednesday and Thursday. Whilst Miss Koumi will be teaching the class during the day, she will be unable to conduct the appointments. 2K’s parent/carer evening will now be on 21st/22nd Feb at the same times you have already booked. We appreciate that you may already have plans so if you can’t make the appointment, please let Miss Koumi know and we’ll find an alternative arrangement. I am so sorry if this causes any inconvenience, we wouldn’t have postponed if it wasn’t a matter of urgency. Miss Koumi and I would like to thank you in advance for your understanding on this.
