Happy bank holiday weekend everyone.
Please bear with me as I take this week's register.

‘Frank the dog?’ Yes
‘2 fully grown sheep?’ Yes
‘2 very cute lambs?’ Yes
‘3 lively goats?’ Yes
It has been fantastic to have so many animals on site this week. Learning is undeniably about books, writing and calculations etc. but it is so much more. It has been incredible to see how our children have enjoyed spending time with and learning about the animals we share this earth with. Last week you heard about ducklings, and yesterday I was lucky enough to have a visitor at my desk!
Today we have had both school dogs and a mobile farm on site. It has been so lovely to see our children interact with these animals. We have to extend a big thanks to one of our parents and governors, Felicia, whose day job is as a vet. She played a pivotal role in this visit, finding funding and organising the event.
It has been a joyous and extremely busy Friday, so I am going to sign off here. OK, that may be a bit of an excuse. It is actually my turn to visit the farm animals, and I am not missing out on this opportunity!
Have a lovely extended weekend and see you all on Tuesday.
Stay safe.
