• WALKING BUS CANCELLED on DITCH THE DARK DAY

  Thu 27 Oct 2022

  Due to weather warnings in place for tomorrow, we will not run our Walking Bus from The Crescent in the morning.

   

  It is still a non uniform day. Please wear your brightest clothes to school and 'Ditch the Dark', raising awareness of safe travel to school on the darker days.

  

• DITCH THE DARK DAY, FRIDAY 28TH OCTOBER

  Mon 24 Oct 2022

  Looking forward to Ditch the Dark Day on Friday 28th October!

   

  Aiming to raise awareness of safe travel to school during the darker days and we are encouraging children to actively travel (walk, scoot, cycle, park and stride) to school wearing the brightest clothing they can! (it's a non-uniform day!)

   

  Children are invited to get creative with their outfits and be super bright. The possibilities are endless – bright clothing, fluorescent orange socks, a pink tutu, a neon green wig – get bright, brighter, brightest!  Parents are more than welcome to join the fun too! Please feel free to dress to impress in your best neon bright clothing and travel to school actively with your child on the day!

   

  We understand that it might not be possible for everyone to actively travel to school the whole way, particularly if you live far away. In this case we’d encourage you to park a distance away from school and walk the final part of the journey to school with your child. In doing so we hope to reduce the number of cars around school and have lots of active kids!

   

  why not join our walking bus which will leave the Witch's Hat in The Crescent at 8.35am SHARP on the day.

   

  Looking forward to a fun filled Active Travel Day!

   

  Many thanks for your continued support.
