World Peace Day 2022

2022 Theme: End racism. Build peace.

Each year the International Day of Peace is observed around the world on 21 September. The UN General Assembly has declared this as a day devoted to strengthening the ideals of peace, through observing 24 hours of non-violence and cease-fire.

But achieving true peace entails much more than laying down arms.  It requires the building of societies where all members feel that they can flourish. It involves creating a world in which people are treated equally, regardless of their race.


Litter Pickers

We have our very own daily litter pickers. Our super year 4 class have taken to cleaning up the school grounds each lunchtime. This is led by Jakob, who is very passionate about his role and does his role with pride. Thank you litter pickers! 


PTFA Funds

Our PTFA fund raising has enabled us to improve EYFS outdoor areas. We have a new climbing frame and a new writing shed. Thank you everyone for your support! 


Our New House Captains

This year to encourage the highest standards of behaviour we have introduced House Teams - Amber, Ruby, Emerald and Sapphire. Our new year 6 Captains, will count the pupil's star awards each week and a trophy will be presented in assembly. At the end of each term the winning team receives a special treat. All the staff have also been allocated a team too. Good luck to all teams. Let's see who the first winner will be.
