The big event in school this week has been the Year 3, 4 and 5 performances of ‘Robin Hood and the Sherwood Hoodies’. I am sure that all of you who watched it would agree that it was a fabulous show and that all the children put on an amazing spectacle for all to watch. It has been lovely to put something like this on again and have an audience in school to watch it. Events like this make the school a more exciting place for the children and hopefully we will now be able to return to our full programme of the extended curriculum now more Covid restrictions are being lifted. I would also like to thank all my staff in Years 3, 4 and 5 who have worked extremely hard on putting together such a great show and to the PTA who helped us serve refreshments in the interval.

When we put performances on in school we never charge for tickets for people to watch the show but we always have a collection for a charity. This time it was for the Disaster Emergency Committee which is supporting the people in Ukraine and I am pleased to let you know that we raised an impressive £592.60. I would like to thank all those people who kindly donated towards this very worthy cause –especially when the cost of living in our own country has gone up dramatically in recent times.

There has certainly been a contrast in weather this week compared with last week and it has been feeling more ‘fresh’ this week which is a great shame since the Easter holiday is upon us –at least the sun is shining though. Even though the term feels like it has flown by an awful lot has happened since we returned after the Christmas holidays so I am sure we will all enjoy our break. I hope you all have a great holiday and I look forward to seeing you all on your return on Wednesday, 20^th September.
