     Dear Parents/Carers,

    As we come to the end of another successful school year, I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to everyone who has contributed to making this year so special.

    Thank you to our incredible staff, dedicated governors, and our wonderful children for their hard work, enthusiasm, and commitment throughout the year.

    A huge thank you also goes to our parents and carers for your continued support — your partnership is invaluable and truly appreciated.

    A special mention must go to our fantastic PTA, whose tireless efforts culminated in a brilliant summer fair that brought our community together and ended the year on a high note.

    We also say farewell to Miss Hussey, who is moving on to Newton Primary — we wish her every success in her new role. A fond farewell to Mrs Eagle, who is retiring after many years of dedicated service. She leaves behind a legacy of care and excellence, and we wish her a joyful and fulfilling retirement.

    Finally, to our Year 6 children: thank you for all you’ve brought to our school. As you move on to your new comprehensive schools, we wish you the very best in this exciting new chapter. Continue to be curious, kind, and courageous — we are so proud of you.

    Wishing everyone a restful and joyful summer break.

    See you in September!!


    Mrs Bev Phillips
    Head Teacher
