Lost Property

To the mum who lost a leather glove this week – we have found it!  Please call in the office.  There’s a photo of it on the website (in Parents > Lost Property) too.  Thank you.

Please check the Lost Property page if your child has lost something.  Contact the school if you recognise anything, and please can we remind parents/carers to label clothes and any other items with their child’s name.  Thank you very much.
