Lost and Found

Lost Property boxes can be found in the Middle School Foyer and the Office Block Foyer (on the shelves by K5 and K6).  Many classrooms will also have a box for lost property.

Please ensure all items are named (especially polar fleeces, sunhats, lunchboxes and drink bottles) so if they are found we can easily return them to their owner.

We currently have a size 14 polar fleece which has some reading glasses, ear phones and a lollypop in the pocket.  If this sounds like your fleece please collect it from the Office.

Among the Lost Property we have two pairs of reading glasses, a rubik’s cube, headphones and a white bunny rabbit bag with a pop-it ball inside it at the Office.

Lunch Orders

Lunches are available to order for Wednesdays and Thursdays during term time. 
Orders must be placed by 8.30am. 
At lunchtime the lunches will be at the Office for children to collect.
Please ensure you update your child’s classroom number if this has changed since last year.
