Summer Fayre 

A big thank you to our PTA for organising yet another fantastic Summer Fayre! The children's performances were brilliant to watch, the Year 6 stalls were lots of fun, the food was yummy and it was great to see so many of you there. We raised over £3,500! Lots of hard work went into making it such a success and we thank you all for supporting the school. 

 

Year 6 girls cricket success! 

Last Friday, 16 of our Year 6 girls attended a Dynamo Cricket competition at Eaton Park, competing against other schools around Norwich. Our two teams were brilliant - with many wickets, catches, as well as some 4s and 6s hit!  

The team spirit they showed towards one another and the other teams was exemplary, and despite many being new to Dynamo Cricket, it was fantastic to see their confidence grow as the day progressed. Thank you to Mrs Bidder and Miss Money for volunteering to take them. The teams finished 1st and 3rd out of 7 teams. Well done!
