📣Important message from our PE department📣
If your child has PE on their timetable this Friday, they will need to bring in their PE kits. They will need to bring trainers, not football boots😉 Their PE teacher will talk to them about the term ahead and what they will be doing in lessons.

As we welcome back our students and staff this week, please ensure your child has enough credit on their Arbor account if they want to purchase food at break or lunchtime. Card payments are also taken in the canteen and bistro, however the easiest method of payment is through your Arbor account.
