Noticeboard

• You will find below a grid showing the sessions to be taught each week. They do not exactly follow days as each class has different sessions due to support and PE times being different but it allows you to see the week as a snapshot of sessions. 
• We will always aim to get outside, whatever the weather, as much as possible so children will really need a waterproof coat each day.
