Dear Parents, Carers and Governors,
Orange Class assembly
Well done to Orange Class for starting us off with the first class assembly of the 2007. We really enjoyed all your ideas about forces. Do look at our web-site for a couple of photos.
We have just set up class pages, so keep popping back, as these will develop over time.
