Well done to all the pupils who came to school on Friday dressed in bright and brilliant clothes.  Their efforts to ‘Brighten up the Harvest’ for CAFOD were great, and the funds raised will add to our annual donation to CAFOD.

Congratulations also to the pupils of Class 5SC who had their first off-site overnight residential in the wilds of … Clanfield.  The pupils spent 2 nights at the Sustainability Centre, where the undoubted highlights were the night walk on the gloriously clear Wednesday night, and then a campfire and rousing sing-a-long in the woodland hall on Thursday night.  Don’t worry, they all settled down to bed with hot chocolate, biscuits, and a reading of a chapter from Carrie’s War.  Great thanks go to the Year 5 staff team of Miss Stapley, Mrs Richardson, Mr Crozier and Mrs Osmond for arranging the trip and staying away from home with the pupils.  Visit the Year 5 blog for picture, and next week it is the turn of Class 5E, so pray for clear skies and good weather.
