School Parliament Germ Information

Germs are Everywhere!

Recently, School Parliament delivered an assembly to the school about  how germs spread and the importance of hand washing.
To demonstrate how germs spread between people and objects, School Parliament members produced a short film.

Look out for the blue paint and where it transfers to, as this represents the Germs.

We hope you enjoyed our film.

Keep our school free from germs- wash your hands!

School Sandwiches

As of today children in KS2 (Years 3 to Year 6) who order a school sandwich will be making their own sandwich.

Year 6 have been making their own sandwich for a while and it has proved very successful which is why it was decided to roll out to KS2 (Years 3 to Year 6) children.

We hope the children enjoy preparing and eating their lunch.
