On Friday 1^st April, we are holding a non-uniform day in school to raise money and support the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine. There are thousands of people currently fleeing their homes to seek shelter from the ongoing war. Global charities are working to help as many children, families and people as possible. For our non-uniform day, we would like children to dress in yellow and blue, the colours of the Ukrainian flag, to show solidarity. Donations can be made on your ParentPay account.

On Friday 1st April we are looking forward to seeing the children's wonderful entries for the Easter Egg decorating competition. These will be displayed in the school library so that we can see all the creative ideas.
