    • Comfy Day & Hot Choc!

      Published 09/01/26
      At start of January, children enjoyed one of the most favourite days of the year…comfy day!

      Organised by our fabulous PTFA, children were invited to wear their comfies to school for the day! And the excitement didn’t stop there! Our PTFA served hot chocolate during break time too! Marshmallows, cream, sprinkles…the lot!

      It also helped the weather on the day was freezing cold! So it was an extra welcomed treat!

      We are so greatful and thankful to offer such fun and memorable experiences for all our pupils. We love making happy memories for each and every one of our children.
