Welcome Our Lady of Lourdes Statue and welcome to Alston Lane headteacher and children…

Before we broke up, I was delighted to accompany the children on a school trip to Mrs Dowsen’s Farm! Mr Blair ( also known as Mr Bear to our younger children) also came along. You might have seen Mr Blair calling the bingo numbers for out brilliant PTFA event held at the golf club. Putting aside his bingo calling skills, he put on his boots to come along with us and what a great time we all had!

It really is 'one week to the next' when nearly every week has been a themed week! Yes, before breaking up, we experienced a Big Bird Watch, National Storytelling Week, Safety Week, Mental Health and Well-being Week and many other exciting things you can think of...

We are well into our very special Advent Season and we still have so much to do!

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.
