Families’ Week

Our annual Families’ Week was a huge success. The children had the opportunity to learn about lots of different family make ups and celebrated their own family backgrounds. We welcomed into school our significant females and ended the week with a fabulous Grandparents Tea. 136 grandparents were able to join us and indulge in a sandwich and a sweet treat!
