🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️ Hands up if you had an amazing time at our Colour Run! 🌈🎉

What a fantastic afternoon filled with smiles, laughter, and lots of colourful fun. We loved seeing everyone enjoying themselves and making such wonderful memories.

A huge thank you to all of our wonderful children, families, and staff for making it such a fantastic event. There were so many smiles, so much laughter, and plenty of colourful fun from start to finish!

A special thank you to all the parents for coming along to support and cheer on the children. Your enthusiasm and encouragement helped create such a fantastic atmosphere, and it was wonderful to see everyone fully embracing the fun of the event.

The children had an amazing time getting covered in colour and making memories that we're sure they'll be talking about for a long time!

Thank you all for helping make our Colour Run such a brilliant success! 🌈💜💙💚💛🧡❤️

We are delighted to share the news that our school has been awarded the School Games Platinum Mark Award for the 2025–26 academic year.

The School Games Mark is a Government-led award, launched in 2012 and delivered by the Youth Sport Trust, which recognises schools for their commitment to providing high-quality sporting opportunities and promoting participation in competitive sport both within school and across the wider community. We are delighted to have been awarded the Platinum Mark, the highest level of this prestigious award, for the second time, recognising the hard work, enthusiasm and dedication of our pupils and staff.

This year so far, more than 120 pupils have represented the school in local inter-school competitions, while over 225 pupils have taken part in extra-curricular sporting activities. These achievements reflect the enthusiasm, commitment and sporting spirit shown by our children, and we congratulate them on their fantastic efforts.

To achieve the Platinum Mark, schools must meet rigorous criteria across a number of areas, including participation, competition, leadership and workforce development, and club engagement. This award is a testament to the dedication of our pupils, staff, volunteers and families, whose support has helped create a thriving sporting culture within our school.

We are incredibly proud of this achievement and look forward to continuing to provide exciting opportunities for all pupils to enjoy, participate in and succeed through sport
