Learning for Life: Motivation, Focus, Independence, Resilience, Reflection, Courage.
We are a Christian Values based school. We
create an environment in which children love to
learn, where they drive the choices made about
their learning and where they develop social and
relationship skills which will last throughout their
lives. Our value for May is Patience.
Mary’s Meals
Mrs. Sue Johnson (Bella’s Nan) is putting
together 30 backpacks to send out to Malawi for
children being helped by the Mary’s Meals
charity. We will have a collection box in our
reception area. If anyone has any clean second
hand children’s shorts or skirts (ages 4 – 11yrs in
bright colours) or rucksacks in really good
condition, please would you put them in the box
for Mrs. Johnson to collect. Thank you.
