Special Tea Party Celebration! Two children from each class were invited to a special tea party with Mrs. Loader or Mr. Godwin today! These wonderful pupils were chosen by their teachers for consistently following our school rules, living our school values, and being fantastic learners throughout the half term.
We are incredibly proud of their hard work, positive attitude, and the brilliant example they set for others. Well done to all of our tea party stars!
