FROM THE HEAD'S DESK
Our Rabbits this week are awarded to Gaius Chapman 3G and Harry Anyon 4Y. Gaius was particularly helpful to a member of staff, noticing he could lend a hand and offering to help. Harry has been a terrific friend to a fellow pupil this week and his caring nature has really shown strongly. Well done Gaius and Harry.
