Our school community recently came together to "Beat the Blues" with an energetic series of bingo events held over two weeks. The sessions were designed to raise much-needed funds for the Charles Thompson Mission, transforming the often-dreary winter months into a celebration of music and fun.

In Loving Memory of Rita This event is being held in loving memory of Rita. To honour her spirit, we will be focusing on how we can accept others exactly as they are and support one another.

Everyone is welcome to join in. Let’s come together to make this a wonderful week of kindness across the whole school community! We are suggesting a donation of 50p from participants. All funds raised will go towards Rita's reading table.
Last week, our Junior School hall was transformed into a bustling hub of commerce as our young entrepreneurs took part in the much-anticipated Five Pound Challenge Marketplace.
From creative crafts to fun interactive games, the variety of stalls was a highlight of the day. Shoppers were treated to a brilliant selection, such as hand-crafted Parachute Cord Bracelets and 'Worry Dolls' for sharing secrets. Another crowd favourite was the 'Positive Pins'—custom badges designed to spread a little extra kindness around the school.
