Dear Parents,

What lovely weather the children are having for the Whitby trip. They spent yesterday afternoon studying the beach – so jealous. The latest report is that all is well and a good time is being had by all.

Huge congratulations go out to Sophie and Lilly Belle whose thank you letters have got through to the final of a national competition. Congratulations also to Amy, Jayden, Jonah, Olivia and Arthur who’s letters made it to the semi-final. We are proud of you all.
