Good Work and Good Behaviour
Our celebration assemblies are a huge success! Every week 2 pupils from each class are chosen for their outstanding behaviour and/or exceptional work. Here are some children who have received these certificates in the past. So look out for these on Fridays and make a big deal because they have worked extremely hard to receive one of these.

P.E.
P.E is on Wednesday and Thursday
On these days your child can wear their full PE kit into school.
A full PE kit is a red t-shirt, black shorts and black trainers. We do not allow children to wear pumps during PE so please ensure your child has trainers. if you don not have a full PE kit please come to school in your normal uniform and change into your PE kit before the lesson.
No jewellery is allowed in PE. This also includes studded earrings. If your child is unable to remove their earrings, then please send them in with plasters to cover them up.
For Dance and Gymnastics, children will have bare feet. If your child is unable to do PE in bare feet, please send in a letter. If the child does not have the correct PE kit, they will not be able to take part in the lesson for health and safety reasons.
