📚 World Book Day Reminder! 📚
World Book Day is coming up on Thursday 5th March and we’re really looking forward to celebrating with our pupils!
This year’s theme is “You Are a Reader”, and all pupils are invited to dress up as a book character or create their own character. There will be lots of fun activities and competitions taking place throughout the school day.
Don’t forget our photograph challenge too – we’d love to see children reading in unusual or unexpected places (this could be books, signs, menus, magazines and more!). Please send photos in to your child’s class team.
All pupils will also receive their World Book Day voucher, so please check book bags this week.
Thank you for your continued support – we can’t wait to celebrate reading together! 📖✨ … See MoreSee Less

Fantastic independence Falcons! 👏💙 … See MoreSee Less

At Rutland Farm Park the animal care team cleaned out the Alpacas and goats and gave them fresh bedding and food. They also fed the guinea pigs and changed their water. Meanwhile the maintenance team put down a new enclosure of woodchips for the Emu, closely watched by the Cecil the Emu. They then worked incredibly hard clearing and removing rubbish.🚜 … See MoreSee Less
