Comments Off New appointment for KS2.
Interviews were held in school this week to appoint a new teacher for our Key Stage 2 class. We are pleased to announce that Lara Burtwell was the successful candidate.

A transition day is planned for 1st July – to include the current Y2 pupils – when Lara will teach the class for the day. Continue reading 'Newsletter 12'»
