To help our Year 6 children make the transition into secondary school, we are running a resilience workshop for them during the school day.  We have found this helps our children to be a little more resilient during this important change in their school life.

Year 6 have been working very hard towards their Year 6 SAT’s which start week beginning 13th May.  School appreciates this is a stressful time for the children and parents, but feel very confident the children will do their best.  If you have any concerns please call into school to speak with Mrs O’Sullivan or Mrs Murray

The PTA have organised a free end of term disco for all of the children on Thursday 4th April from 3.15pm to 4.30pm.  Children cna bring clothes to school to change into.  Parents are more than welcome to attend the disco and help supervise your child or join in the fun if you wish.  Unfortunately on this occasion younger siblings are not able to attend.
