Today was a particularly exciting day for the school as some of our Year 6 pupils put themselves forward for the roles of House Captain and Vice House Captain, to represent and lead their house teams (England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales).  As they read out speeches they had written themselves, Year 6 enthralled the rest of the school with their clear and steady public-speaking - a really challenging thing to do so well done to you all!  All the children then had two votes and we announced the titleholders with Year 6 this afternoon.  Huge congratulations to our new House Captains and Vice Captains and I look forward to seeing them flourish in their new roles and responsibilities.

I had a lovely afternoon visiting all the classes to do a Headteacher Sticker run and hearing about the wonderful week each class has had.  Congratulations to our sticker winners for this week.  Lots of children were picked for showing our school values such as: showing respect by listening well, caring for their friends and being patient in learning new things.  Thank you everyone.

As you know, we will be closed on Monday due to her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's funeral. Through our school and class assemblies, we have shared our thanks and amazement at her 70 years of service and dedication to her people and country. Our thoughts are with her family at this time.
