Year 5

Weekly Update - Friday 23rd January 2026

Afternoon all,

As you will know, communication has recently been sent out about our end-of-year residential to Runways End, Aldershot. We are incredibly excited to be taking the children away in what I know will be a fantastic trip. If you have any concerns or questions, including those of a financial nature, please do contact your child’s class teacher, Lucy Gill, or myself, and we would be more than happy to support.

Many thanks,

Mr Lowe
