Attendance

This week’s attendance across the school was really disappointing with some days close to 90%. Such a lovely week missed by lots of children. We hope those who have been poorly are all fit and well for Monday.

In Key Stage 1 our attendance winner was 2S with a superb 99.1%... wow! Well done 2S you were so close to the perfect 100%! A special mention to Starlings in Year 1 too who were above 97% and received a sticker for ‘Spin the Wheel’. Sadly, they were the only two classes receiving stickers this week.

In Key Stage 2 our winner was 3SM with 95.8%. 

Team Points

A new term begins and what will the summer bring for our race for the Friars Cup?  

Points remained close going into the Easter break and this week has seen wins for three of our four teams. Stormont won in Key Stage 1 and it was a sharing of the prize in Key Stage 2 with Windsor and Caernarfon raising the trophy. What did this mean overall? Well, not too much as the scores were so close. 72 points separates all four teams. Close, close, close…
