A day tinged with sadness, but also excitement, for the next chapter of our Year 7's journey.
Thank you to our parents and Carers for allowing us to nurture your children for the last 7yrs. We feel so blessed.
Thank you to the staff who have journeyed through Primary School alongside this special crew....and to Mr McLaughlin for his awful jokes.🤣
Thank you to Lorna for the stunning cake and cupcakes. The children absolutely loved them.🍰🧁
Finally, thank you to our Year 7 pupils. You are just fantastic and will ALWAYS be a special part of our school family. Never change!🤗

It's been a very busy week of gardening for Aileen and her greenfingered crew.
Y1/2 enjoyed trying the peas they had grown!🫛 They also watered the plants- a very necessary job this week!
Y3/4 dug up strawberry plants to take home and grow with their families.
They also loved taking a closer look at the wildflower patch which they planted last Autumn and weeded the garlic patch.
Y5/6/7 each picked some pea pods 🫛 and enjoyed trying some fresh peas which they had grown. They also dug up some strawberry plants from our patch to take home.
Aileen you are SO AMAZING! We are all going to miss you so much.🥲 We cannot thank you enough for the care, time and skills you have shown to these children over the years.
Goodbye and good luck from all of us.🥰🪴🌿

On behalf of the entire school community, we want to say a massive thank you to our unbelievable PTA for organising such a fantastic and successful summer fair.
We all know that an event of this size does not just happen. It takes an incredible amount of behind-the-scenes time, dedication, and meticulous planning. We are so grateful for the hours they have spent coordinating vendors, organising stalls, and ensuring everything ran smoothly.
A special thank you goes to everyone who arrived early to set up, and to those who stayed late into the evening to clear up. Turning a school space into a festival of fun—and then restoring it back to a school ground—requires immense physical effort and teamwork. Your hard work did not go unnoticed.
Because of your generosity and spirit, our families made wonderful memories, and the funds raised will directly benefit the children. Thank you for giving up your personal time to make our school such a vibrant and supported place.🙏
