• Year 6 Manor Adventure Residential - 6-10th November 2023

  Fri 10 Nov 2023 S Burgin

  What an amazing week!

  
  One final post from me just to say what an absolute pleasure it was to take Year 6 away this week. Every single one of them behaved impeccably and they did the school proud. It was lovely to spend time with them outside the classroom, and I must say, I am the luckiest teacher in the world to have the most hilarious, fun, kind-hearted class. We really have had a fantastic time!
  I am sure they will all sleep well this weekend and I just want to thank you all for your help earlier and continued support.
