Thank you to all parents who attended our Fred Frog Friday. The morning was really successful with children sharing their phonics learning and showing parents how they learn to read. Teachers prepared activities such as making Fred hats or reading pointers, threading words and finding sounds in the sand.

On Wednesday 26th April 2023some of the children from our well-being groups went to Bridgewater Gardens. We looked at lots of pretty flower displays and got some great tips for planting in our nurture garden. The children worked really enjoyed the den making and shown great team building qualities. They really should be extremely proud of themselves as their behaviour was outstanding and it was lovely to hear members of the public comment on how polite and well behaved the children were.
