Over the last few weeks Kully and Judy from the West Bromwich Building Society, have been giving their time to educate the children in years 5 and 6 about money matters. The children learnt about money management, saving for the future and the value of money. Thankyou to both ladies especially to Kully, who is one of our parents.

Bulls in the city If you are looking for something to do over the summer, why not visit the bulls in the city and admire Ms Moores work and our very talented children's ideas. Our bull called Moran will be on display over the summer at Brindley place (Near Novotel and just off Broad street). Our bull, called Moran is in memory of our dear friend Mrs. Moran. Well done to Yuvraj and Aya who had their ideas combined . If you find the bull, please take a photo and share it with us.
What a year we have had! Some sorrow and losses but with faith and friendship we made it through. Thank you all for your support and together we are able to achieve the best outcomes for our school community. We wish you a very safe and happy summer holiday. Children return to school on Wednesday 3rd September but the offices will be open Monday 1st and Tuesday 2nd for anyone who wants to buy uniform.
