As we reach the end of our first term, I would like to thank our children, staff and families for helping to make it such a purposeful and productive start to the school year. It has been a term full of learning, growth and opportunity, and it has been wonderful to see our school community working together so positively.
A particular thank you to everyone who attended our Harvest Service at St Mary's Church. The children represented the school beautifully, sharing songs, ambitious and reflective poems about autumn and harvest, and a thoughtful harvest poem that celebrated the season and the importance of helping others. We are also incredibly grateful for the generous donations received for the St Saviour's Food Larder. Your kindness and support will make a real difference to families in our local community.
In other news, we are delighted to welcome Kelly Edmunds, who will be joining us on Fridays in an administrative and office role.
Also a wonderful message from Miss Hitchcock, "Hugo was born on the 7th of October, weighing 7lb and 7oz, with a full head of hair. He's doing really well and settled in nicely at home." Thank you to everyone who contributed to a gift for Miss Hitchcock and we can't wait to see you both soon!
Finally, thank you to those parents who have supported us by helping to spread the word about our forthcoming Open Days by sharing our advertisements with friends, family and the wider community.
We wish all of our families a restful and enjoyable half-term break and look forward to welcoming everyone back next term.
