100% Attendance
One of our ex pupils Aaron Aujla (now in Year 7) was invited to the Mayor’s Parlour to receive an award for never having a day off in the whole of his time at Primary School. We had recognised this amazing achievement at the end of the summer term in 2011, but we were very proud for Aaron, and only a very few other children from across the city who were awarded their certificates and a gift voucher by the Lord Mayor.
Reception Bike-a-thon
The children in Reception held a sponsored Bike-a-thon before
Christmas and raised a massive £528.00. The money will be used to buy ‘big toys’ etc for the school. Well done to everyone who took part!
