Year 5 letter on senior schools and preparation over the summer
All Year 5 parents were sent these documents this week:
A letter from Mrs Weir outlining registering for the Pre-Test and holiday work
Please ensure you have a close look through these and contact Mrs Weir with any questions.
Year 8 - Please Return All Library Books / Donate to Second Hand Uniform
A final plea for all Year 8s to have a search for any school library books that may be hiding on their shelves at home, in their bags, or in their lockers. Similarly, if you would like to donate your uniform to the Second Hand Uniform shop to raise funds for the Children's Air Ambulance, that would be much appreciated. You can drop them in the porch at any time of the school holidays. Thank you!

Summer Holiday Work
The children have worked incredibly hard over the course of the past academic year and now deserve a break! However, we are always mindful that some parents and pupils like to have continuity while they are away from school.
With that in mind, we recommend the following to help consolidate the year’s learning.
