Head Teacher Blog w/c 29 April

What a fantastic week it has been! We started the week looking at our value for this half term of Determination and our Always try your hardest petal. We heard from Will Smith who puts his success down to his work ethic not his natural talent.

Our boys football team played showing Determination on Monday. Whilst they lost 3-0 they played a very strong team from Orston and defended magnificently never giving up. Well done for representing our school so well boys!
