We are all still in shock at the sudden and totally unexpected death of Sue Joyner this week. Sue was headteacher of our school for 18 years and a huge part of school life and the wider community.
We are putting together a “book of remembrance” if anyone would like to contribute.
Unfortunately due to the new COVID 19 rules we are unable to allow people other than staff into school whilst the children are here and so for people to be able to add their piece we are asking that you either post/send it into school or email it to us and I will then add it for you.
Please open link to a letter from Simon Taylor, CEO, regarding plans for September.
Please open link to a letter from Simon Taylor, CEO, regarding plans for Three Rivers schools provision.
As part of Hedgehog week, Mrs Archer asked the children to think of a name for the hedgehog that lives in our school. garden.
There were some fantastic and creative suggestions and we asked Mrs Ward, one of our wonderful volunteers to make the selection and she chose – Hope.
Many congratulations to Charlie who thought of the name ‘Hope.’ We think it is a very fitting name in these current times!
