Special Menu
As agreed by our pupil led school council we will celebrate Diwali with some learning activities to understand the story and then a special meal to enjoy some traditional food.

And Finally...
A gargantuan thank you to the staff who gave up their time to support with last night's silent disco as well as the amazing Autisk who lent us the equipment and Laura Agnew who did a lot of the organising. The pupils had a brilliant time AND we raised a whopping ££231.17 to subsidise school rewards and school trips.
