even at a small school. The Pumpkin patch will
become an Autumn Term regular feature no
doubt.
The school children and their families
benefitted from having a number of school
trips subsidised, and the PTFA were proud to
be able to support the annual end of year trip
to the pantomime for the whole school.
The PTFA were able to fully fund a new
orienteeringsystem in theplayground. This
interactive learning experience, aligns with the interactive learning experience, aligns with the
school objectives of exploring new ways to
engage with pupils, to make learning fun and
keep them active.

along with other donations received, are to go
towards funding the additional pod space.
