This week year 2 visited St John's Museum as part of their learning on Victorians. They had a lovely day full of learning all about life in a Victorian household and what is was like to go to school as a Victorian child. Once again, the children were a fantastic representation of our school and the staff of St John's Museum were full of praise for their behaviour and interest in learning. Well done Year 2! Thank you to parents who volunteered to accompany the children on this trip, we could not manage these learning visits without you.
Apologies for the disruption today, please presume school is open on Monday unless you hear otherwise. We will celebrate Children in Need next week on Friday 20th November.
Remembrance day
On Wednesday Year 2 led our remembrance assembly and we welcomed William from St Mary Magdalene Church. Thank you for helping us raise money for the Royal Legion through buying a poppy for your child. We will let you know soon how much we raised.

Children's images and AI
The SWGFL have released guidance for parents who may be using AI to manipulate images of their children, so that they have a better understand of what happens to uploaded images. You can read the guidance here.
