Issue Number: 08

From the desk of Mr Raraty

Before half-term we celebrated the successes of the term with a special Effort Cup assembly. Each half-term a child from each class is nominated for the Effort Cup with an overall winner in KS1 and KS2. As always, it is so difficult to decide who should receive this special recognition. Well done to our nominees and our overall winners. 

 

Goslings - Poppy Dawes and Sophie Locklock

Woodpeckers - Eliza Rowntree

Doves - Ariella Watson-Holme

Hummingbirds - Semyon Zadniprianya

Kingfishers - Max markey

Kookaburras - Dexter Whitehouse

Toucans - Ferne Higgins

Penguins - Charlie Shroder

Parrots - Reuben Clark

Swans - Berri White

The overall winners of the Effort Cups were Ariella and Berri.

Congratulations!
