Advent Day – Friday 25th November

We would love for you to come in on Advent Day on Friday 25th November and spend some time in your child’s class. They will be getting creative and expressing their thoughts on how they will be patient as we wait. We invite you to come in through the office door – you will need to sign in – from 9.15am. We will have an ‘open’ school until 10.15am. Please do come and join us, it will give some of you the chance to actually see your child’s class for the first time!
