Equalities Group
The Equalities Group, made up of parents and staff had a great meeting on Thursday to discuss progress. We are hoping to look again at our literature and ethos and further commit to our policies on anti-racism. We would welcome more parents into this group, so please let us know if you’d like to take part in future meetings.
Teddy Bears’ Picnic
P2 and their P7 buddies (and staff!) had a lovely time in the hall celebrating the end of their topic by having a picnic with their favourite soft toy in the hall. Children had enjoyed planning and preparing for this special occasion using their numeracy, writing and listening & talking skills.
February Holiday
We will break today (Friday) for a week long holiday. Everyone will return on Monday 20th February at the usual times.
Have a great break!
Kind regards,
Stephen Gilhooley
