Halloween Disco
It was lovely to see all the children enjoying themselves at the Halloween Disco. The DJ was so impressed with their behaviour he said we were one of the best schools he had been to. He commented on their lovely manners and the way they joined in with all the games. It was so good we have booked him again for a Christmas Disco!

Careers Related Learning
Yesterday, the Ministers for Technology and Careers attended the Connell College Careers Fair. It was a great opportunity to visit a further education setting and to talk to the many different institutions and companies. The children were a credit to the school and asked lots of interesting questions about job roles and the skills required. In the summer term, these children will help to plan our own Careers Fair.
Safeguarding and Family Support
Please remember that if you require support with food for you and your families, please speak to Mrs Stacey who can facilitate you with support and offer information regarding Local Food Banks, Community Larders and Community Fridges.
We have been kindly donated a considerable amount of food by one of our governors, which we have organised into emergency hampers. These hampers are available in crisis situations when access to external agencies and services is unavailable. We hope that having these emergency hampers on site will prevent any of our families from going hungry.
Bonfire Night
5th November is Bonfire Night so we have attached a link to the Child Accident Prevention Trust website which has great information and advice regarding how to keep ourselves safe on Bonfire Night.

We hope you have a safe and enjoyable Bonfire Night!
