View From The Top

Each day we edge closer to the completion of the EYFS garden. How about a bird's eye view of the project! Our carpenter - Colin - is now getting the roof of the tree house on, and the vantage point is amazing. We have some photos of the view from up on high, which we know will give the pupils a whole new way of viewing the environment.

News & Events

Next Week Events: 
Next week we have the Year 5 children going up to London to see Great Expectations at the Vaudeville Theatre. On the same day, we have pupils from KS1 visiting Stratford for their termly trip. So far we have had a number of commendations from the public. They have been very keen to approach the teachers to praise the behaviour and attitude of your children. They really are a credit to both us and you! Also on Wednesday, representatives of the School Council are visiting the Mayor’s Parlour at the Town Hall. It will be a very busy week indeed.

Sharing Assembly: 
We look forward to welcoming the parents of Birch to their assembly performance on Wednesday 6th March @ 9.05am
