With the temperatures for the week ahead set to be 30°c and above, please help us keep our children safe by following these steps:
- Apply suntan cream to your child before school. The 6 hour cream is best.
- Send them in school PE kit or school dresses (lightweight clothing)
- Ensure that they have sun hats
- Send them with water bottles
Thank you for your support.

What an amazing sports week it has been. We have seen the children trying lots of different sports; swimming, hobby horse races, long distance running, field sports (throwing and jumping), martial arts, football and sports day.
Well done to all of Team Ridgeway for the superb effort everyone has put in this week. The week came down to the last leg of the last race of the week, but a huge congratulations to Team New Zealand for winning the week.

IOW final thought.
All home safely (possibly missing a coat!).
What a wonderful week. I could not be more proud of the children and want to thank them for making my last Ridgeway residential such fun. Special memories for us all.

Wet, wet, wet!
That was the theme of the day. But has that stopped us no! Robin Hill, all outdoors, but we have played crazy golf, played on diggers, run the maze, slid down the hillside slide. Fab day. Amazing attitude from all of the children.
We finished the day out with a nice hot chocolate, to warm up.
Now, dinner, showers, packing, a few games and then bed as it is an early morning tomorrow (6am wake up) as we start our journey home.
