Year 5 - Miss Batey
Year 4 - Mr Raine

What the children say...
Mr Raine is the best teacher in the world. He helps us when we are stuck and tells us how to improve. If we do not understand a task he does not send us to our tables until we have some ideas. We think Mr Raine is a very exciting teacher. Sometimes he plays musical instruments for us that we have never heard before, like a didgeridoo. He also shows us new books. He is kind and keeps us safe, like when there is a fire drill he takes us straight outside. We know all the rules to help keep us and others safe. Mr Raine gives us lots of merits and rewards for trying our best. Mr Raine really is the number 1 teacher!
Welcome to Year 3

Both Miss Tully and I would like to thank all the parents who came to our Harvest Festival last week. The year 3 children did really well and led the whole school in a fantastic performance. Well done and thank you children. (Photographs to follow).
