Another busy week

The weeks seem to fly by and this has been another very full five days. The road safety officer was in school on Tuesday morning to provide road safety training to all the younger children. This was very successful and we hope the lessons learned will be retained. The school hosted a meeting of the three Parochial Parish Councils on Tuesday evening. They were given two presentations about the school and the work that goes on to support the young people of the parish. All those in the parish were encourgaged to become more involved in the life of the school and an open offer made to anyone who can offer help in any way. Thursday saw the Reception children making the journey to Williamson Park in Lancaster. They visited the Butterfly House and the park as part of their work on minibeasts. On Thursday evening we held our AGM and the keynote speaker as Jeff Haslam from the Local Authority who gave an informative, relevant and a times very moving talk on the subject of internet Safety. Following the talk, parents were invited to tour the school and to see the different ways in which each age group make use of ICT to support learning. Despite the small numbers attending, it was a very successful evening. As ever, we owe a debt of gratitude to all those members of staff who gave up their time to ensure all went smoothly.
