About

Three of our Year 5 pupils decided to raise money by holding a sale on the green. The girls raised 32 which they used to purchase items for the local food bank. Working together they selected long life items and added up the costs. What a lovely gesture from our pupils! Year 5 have been busy creating Anderson shelters as part of their Design and Technology lessons.

We can't wait to see their finished work. The winners of our Summer Reading Challenge received their chosen books during the weekly celebration assembly. Keep reading! The VIAT Festival of Creativity is just over 2 weeks away and we are so excited to invite you to an extravaganza of creative events and performances!
