Weekly News for Families 08.04.22

Dear Parents and Carers,
We have reached the end of the Spring Term!  Thank you to everyone who came to Time to Shine last week and to everyone who walked with the children to the Easter services this week.  It was lovely to see how the Early Years and Key Stage 1 children have been thinking about the different Easter symbols that are around us.  It was also great to hear how the Key Stage 2 children’s R.E. learning had been making them think about the Easter story.
