We are very excited that it is now less than two weeks to the start of our STEM (science, technology, engineering and maths) week, which this year will be centering around “Building a school on the Moon”. 

As part of our STEM week, we would like to invite parents to come into school on Friday 14th April and share the work that the children will produce during the week. Each phase will have the opportunity to come and view the exhibition of the children’s work at the following times: 


8:30am - 10:15am - Early Years Parents and Children

10:45am - 12:15pm - Upper Primary Parents and Children

2:00pm - 3:20pm - Lower Primary Parents and Children


As well as viewing the exhibition, you will also have the opportunity to participate in an exciting, parent-led workshop with your child. 


We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible at our STEM exhibition.
