This applies for all clubs/events that finish after 4.30pm If you are cycling home - make sure you have lights fitted and all in working order. Please keep safe at this time of year.

Cashless Canteen

Our Canteen has now gone Cashless - all part of our new Parentmail and +Pay system. Highlights and School Trips will all now be done via the computer if you have registered with us. Don't worry if not, your son/daughter will still receive a hard copy of school letters/trips/highlights etc if you have not registered. Please bear with us during the 'change over', there may well be some teething problems. However, in the long run it should be much easier to pay for trips, saving time, hassle and a few trees in the long run. If you need any info on this, please do not hesitate to ring/email the school office for more.
