Durham County Council have now extended the closing date for their Apprenticeship campaign and the revised closing date for all vacancies is now Sunday 15th May.
Easter Egg and Bonnet Competition
The children in Butterfly, Ladybird and Dragonfly Class wowed us all with their colourful Easter bonnets. They really enjoyed wearing them for an Easter bonnet parade, which staff videoed and uploaded onto the school Facebook page.
The children in Key Stage Two showed amazing creativity with their egg designs – we certainly have some talented children!
As ever, it was an almost impossible task to pick winning eggs and bonnets, as in our eyes all the children are winners – however an impartial panel of judges did just that. Take a look at the children’s entriesand a huge well done to everyone who made a bonnet or decorated an egg.
Partial School Closure
We have closed Reception Class for the rest of the week as a ‘circuit breaker’ as over a third of the class have reported testing positive for COVID. They will return on Monday 31st January.
Please be vigilant – if you have children in other classes and they are unwell, please carry out a lateral flow test before sending them back to school.

Goodbye and Good Luck to our Year 6 pupils!
It is so sad to say goodbye to our Year 6 pupils. They have been an absolutely fantastic year group throughout their time in school and excellent role models for our younger children. They are a truly talented group. I am sure that each and every one of them has a really bright future ahead of them and wish them every success in their new schools. We will really miss them.
