Dear Parents and Carers,

Part 1 Broadford News

Summer Fete
Don’t forget that Saturday 15th June (tomorrow) is the annual school summer fete. Due to the weather forecast, the fete will go ahead but it will be held inside the school. The bouncy castles will be inside the new hall and then there will be games in the corridors and through the school leading to the hall in the older school building. This is where there will be stalls, refreshments and performances.
We look forward to seeing you there. It may be a rainy day but please come along, stay dry and have some fun!

Transition 

The preparation for moving on has started! This week the children have been inquisitive and have come up with questions that they want to know the answers to regarding the next year group. Next the pupils will start to answer those questions and elect a spokesperson to give feedback on behalf of the class.
