It is Christmas Jumper Day on Thursday 7th December organised by the charity Save The Children. We are inviting students to wear a Christmas jumper with their uniform instead of a blazer on this day.

A £1 voluntary contribution will be available on ParentPay.

Students do not have to participate in this day if they don't want to. Students can come to school in their uniform as normal.

Aspens, our catering company, have released their proposed tariff increase, which will be effective in the new year.

Full details will be uploaded to our website before the rise, however headline items are:

We are pleased to inform you that our latest order of REACH badges has arrived, and our Heads of Year are working tirelessly to distribute the hard earned REACH badges to those who earned them.

We apologise again for this delay, and want to ask again that you encourage your child to keep REACHing for Superstars.

It is a joy to see so many students wearing their REACH badges with pride, demonstrating to all those in our community how they are developing their character.

Mr J Tomasevic - Assistant Headteacher
