SPRING TERM NEWSLETTER

Monday, 8 January 2024

We warmly welcome you and yours to the beginning of a new journey, a fresh start and a fertile ground to groom and nurture the young lives you’ve confidently handed to us.
It’s the official Term 2 for the 2023/2024 Academic session which is named ‘Spring Term’ in our prestigious learning community. Here are some amazing facts about Spring; the days get longer and nights get shorter, the temperature is milder, and FLOWERS BLOOM(our little friends are expected to bloom in all the prime areas of the EYFS and beyond). There is a warm wind in the spring season in the air and we get to spend lots of fun time outside (this means we would have loads of outdoor activities to make learning fun and secure).

We require your understanding and support on this issue, it is important to note that it does not involve any form of corporal punishment.
