Dear Children, Families, Staff, Governors and Friends,

Despite it being a short week, the children and teachers have continued to pack things in here at BG. Reception had a fantastic day at Paradise Wildlife Park on Thursday. I am told that the tigers especially were a big hit but the huge anaconda less so – at least with the parent helpers! Many thanks to those of you who were able to support the visit and who made the day such as success.

Our thanks also to all the Nursery parents who supported us in delivering our civic duty this week in being a polling station. A big extra thank you to the staff, including the premises team, who turned a classroom into a polling station, and then back to a classroom, at breakneck speed to ensure we could welcome the children back today as if nothing had happened!

Wishing you all a very happy and healthy weekend,
