A heartfelt thank you to the brilliant Sandwell School Nursing for hosting their Sun Safety drop-in chat on our KS1 playground yesterday! Families had the opportunity to pop by, pick up some helpful information and chat about how to keep their children safe in the sun this summer. Whether it was tips on sunscreen, staying hydrated or simple sun-smart habits, the advice was friendly and practical. We really appreciate the support and expertise shared with our families

What a fantastic Sports Day we had yesterday! We weren't sure what the weather would bring, with forecasts of rain, strong winds, and sunshine all rolled into one, but it turned out to be a roaring success! Every single one of our children participated with such enthusiasm and showed amazing sportsmanship. A huge thank you to all the families who joined us and created such a wonderful atmosphere cheering on the children. Your support made it extra special! We'd love to hear your positive comments below! Your kind words mean the world to our dedicated staff, who pour their hearts into making these events run so smoothly.
