Year 1 had a great craft session with Tasha making Christmas stars. Look out for them in book bags this week as they will be a lovely addition to the Christmas tree!

Year 6 volunteers in Reception

A big thank you must go to the KS2 children who have volunteered to be trained up in LEGO Play Therapy skills by Ms Steer in their lunchtimes. You are helping Reception learn and showing great leadership qualities in the process!
