Every day, we strive to make ourselves, our class and our school the best it can be. Our school has five Golden Rules which were thought up by the children and agreed by our School Parliament. These rules are:
• Think before you act and speak
• Respect everyone and everything
• Try your best and never give up
• Be safe and keep others safe
• Remember your manners
We love exploring and learning, living out our core purpose of let your light shine.
