Just a reminder to all parents that we have a fantastic group of dedicated parents who work in partnership with school called Families Connect. The group meet informally every Tuesday morning in the After School Club and partake in a range of activities which include learning more about how the school works. Activities sometimes involve working with the children, making resources, supporting teaching and learning and activities chosen by the group themselves. Sometimes the group just meet to have a chat and a coffee. The group is run by Mrs Vanda Wright and everyone is welcome.

It is vitally important all pupils are present to take these tests. Please avoid booking holidays and appointments – thank you.

 

We have some very thoughtful pupils in our school. Niamh, Lottie and other past pupils have been singing Christmas carols in their locality to raise money for Nightingale House. I believe the girls were singing for five hours and raised a total of £173! Wow – well done!

Well done year 2! What a fabulous, wriggly show today. You were amazing!

Well done to all the children who took part this morning. you sang and acted beautifully.

Our Junior Choir supported the Sirenian Singers at a Christmas Service at Gresford Church on Saturday night. It was a special evening and our choir sang beautifully. Thank you children for coming and to Mrs Morris-Hughes and Miss Williams for conducting and accompanying.

 

 

 

 

Well done everyone – we raised a fantastic £331 for Save the Children.

We had a superb first show on Tuesday afternoon. Children and staff have worked incredibly hard to put on yet another ambitious show – well done everyone.

Well done Zac – you have been spotted behaving brilliantly!
