Stay Safe when Online!

18th June 2016 By spidrwebadmin

Our Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 children held fabulous E-Safety assemblies in school. The message to stay safe whilst online certainly hit home. Thank you to all the parents who attended and to Pauline Stewart from DCC who held separate talks with parents on E-safety issues. There will be further information sent out to parents on the issue of E-Safety. Feel free to pick up an E-safety leaflet from the school reception area. You can also update your E-safety knowledge by visiting the E-safety page on our school website.

A fantastic Art Day!

15th June 2016 By spidrwebadmin


Our school had a visit from a real life artist today who worked with the children exploring different forms of art. Jane McCraken is a professional artist who has produced many exciting and commercial art pieces. Having given an assembly to the children, Jane then went on to work with classes to produce their own works of art! All the children had a fabulous day and certainly learnt lots of new artistic skills.
