‘Nurturing Individual Excellence’

Monday 6th July 2020

 

Hi everyone.  I hope you've all had a super weekend.  On Friday, one of our chickens escaped from my garden and was gone for most of the day!  Fortunately, I found her in a bush just before tea time!  

Only two more weeks to go before our summer holidays.  You're all doing an amazing job.
