🌟 A Truly Special Day for Our School Community! 🌟

22nd Sep 2025

On Saturday, something magical happened at our school. Members of our incredible school community—including enthusiastic pupils, dedicated staff, and wonderfully supportive families—came together to take on the challenge of tidying up and transforming our outdoor learning area. And what a transformation it was!

To say we achieved our goal is an understatement. With energy, teamwork, and a shared sense of pride, we cleared away unwanted resources, built exciting new outdoor play equipment, created a beautiful sand area, improved the ground around Mrs Currie’s room, and filled our walls with vibrant, eye-catching displays. The space is now more accessible, engaging, and inspiring for all our pupils.

💚 The atmosphere was filled with laughter, creativity, and a real sense of community spirit. Everyone gave their all, and the results speak for themselves.

🎥 Take a look at the video to see everything that happened—from the hard work to the joyful moments, the incredible transformation of our outdoor space and the children having fun in their new play area.

A huge thank you to:

  • Kyle Bell, for generously providing the sand for our new sand area.
  • All the parents and children who brought their talents, tools, and delicious treats.
  • Our fantastic staff, who organised the day so smoothly and provided food and refreshments to keep everyone going.

We are so proud of everyone involved. This was more than just a tidy-up—it was a celebration of what makes our school so special. Thank you all for your kindness, your hard work, and your heart.
