Back to School!

The children have been back to school for 4 weeks now and what a busy start to the half term it has been! There have been new friends to make, school lunches to eat and lots of exciting things to learn and do.

This week Reception have dedicated time to supporting charitable causes as part of our topic 'People Who Help Us'. The children were lucky enough to have a visit from a lovely lady who volunteers at the Watford Foodbank who told us all about the fantastic work that they do there and how they help lots of people. Thanks to the generosity of the Reception parents we were able to send a sizable donation back to the Watford Foodbank which will be used to feed families in need!

Not only have the children been collecting food for the Foodbank, but Thursday saw the entire school baking up a storm in time for the Macmillan Cake Sale. There were cakes and biscuits of all shapes and sizes and the hall was full of people queuing up to see what treats they could find. With only a few crumbs left at the end of the sale, we are keeping our fingers crossed for a big fundraising total to send to Macmillan!
