The Confirmation ceremony for our pupils in 6th Class took place on Saturday 1st August.  We were all so disappointed that the original ceremony due to take place on March 13th had to be postponed but now almost five months later, with certain restrictions,  we were able to celebrate this wonderful occasion together.

Congratulations to all involved!

Everyone in the school wishes all of 6th Class the very best in the years to come.

We are looking forward to welcoming some of our pupils back to school on Monday July 20th as we begin the summer provision programme.

Please read our School Covid-19 Response Plan which outlines our policies and procedures towards a safe re-opening of our school.

We may be on our summer holidays but Jazmin is still working hard! Well done Jazmin!  

We held a whole school video call today to say a special goodbye to our 6th Class.  It was great to see so many of our children as our summer holidays begin.

Here’s our video of 6th Class memories and good luck wishes.

Take a look at this video.  It tells the story of our year.

Wishing everyone a Happy Summer Holidays!
