DAMAGE TO SCHOOL PROPERTY There has been an incident this week relating to damage to school property after school. We would like to remind parents and carers that although we allow pupils to use the school yard and field after school we do expect them to respect our property and use it appropriately. We had no but option to call the police on this occasion. They have spoken to the children involved and they have been dealt with in school. TAG RUGBY The year 3,4,5 and 6s went to a rugby tournament and the year 3s and 4s came first in the small school’s competition and came second all round. The year 5s and 6s came second in the small schools and 4th all round. The year 5 and 6s did amazing as they got better in every game that they played, it was the same with the year 3s and 4s. The best year 5 and 6 try was by Keldi Neeson and in year 3 and 4 the best try was by Megan Williamson but all round everyone did amazingly well. Well done to all who participated.   Reported by: Ella and Isobel FOREST SCHOOL It’s Y3/4 turn to do Forest School on Friday, they will need old clothes/waterproofs and wellies.
