We are proud to be part of Kernow Learning - our family of schools and today we were delighted to receive a book in the Kernow Learning Book Chain from our friends St Merryn School and Nursery.
Each school in our Trust selected a book to gift to each other and open it in a special assembly today. St. Merryn chose 'Strictly No Elephants' which everyone really enjoyed. It was the perfect choice for the children in our school, who are kind and considerate to their friends. Thank you St. Merryn, this was a lovely treat for the last day of a busy Spring Term. We love celebrating with our Trust

Your dedication to your Unearthed project and the way you responded to challenges and missions has been truly impressive.
We'd also like to say what brilliant humans you are for taking the time to nominate your coach Mrs. Carter in the category of 'Best Coach'. She was blown away by all the lovely things you had to say about her and has really enjoyed working with you over the past few weeks.
Lego League might be over for this year, but you are all truly legendary! Go on girls!
