Today the children took part in CAFODs BIG Lent Walk! They were all sponsored and took it in turns to walk outside carrying their bags to help them understand what others around the world might experience when walking long distances for food & water!

Virtual Farm Visit
Thursday, 23 March 2023
Reception class had a lovely time visiting the virtual farm today! They met Tess the sheepdog, and saw her at work, Lisa the goat and saw some eggs being collected from the hen house! The children were also impressed with the solar panels the farm has to support sustainability!
B-Tales
Wednesday, 22 March 2023
We had a lovely afternoon with the B-Tales today! It was an emotional rollercoaster as we were reminded of the wonderful things Jesus did before being condemned to death on the cross. The children really felt that there were there with Jesus. Although we were sad, we know that there is a VERY happy ending to come!
