Celebration
We celebrate our learning and experiences in a variety of ways. We use our Class Dojo and Facebook account to capture many events; our newsletter keeps everyone up to date with what is happening and each year group has a page on the website where you can find out more about the classes, their learning and learning links and each week. Weekly assemblies celebrate successes both in and out of school. We invite parents to come and join us at coffee mornings, where children often share their learning.
