The day started at 8.00am without a pair of gloves on Horns Lane with a sheep (which I have now been told is something called a tup) slipping around the road on the ice having escaped from a field. Obviously, it was my first important job of the day to get the sheep off the road and back into the first field opening I could find before the morning traffic began. Just to inform you all, I am still trying to get the roads outside school gritted by the highways agency. Please do drive very slowly and carefully.

As we come to the end of this half term, we have many things to celebrate.

Children from St.Francis and St.Mary’s had a great time at the Preston competition. It is lovely to work together and enjoy competitive sports.

Hello all and a very warm welcome back to another school year!

Belonging isn’t just a feeling, it’s an action and a way of living in the world too.
