School Photos

Parent Council-run class photos are back by popular demand.

Please be aware that photos are being taken slightly earlier this year on Wednesday, April 24th, and Thursday, April 25th.

Pictures will only be available to purchase through ParentPay starting the 29th of February. Pictures are digital copies only, and we will send you a link to download and print the photos.

Prices remain the same as last year.

Class Photo £5.00

Individual Photo £10.00

Siblings Photos £15.00

Please order your photos as early as possible to make the process as smooth as possible on the day.

The photos are a fantastic fundraiser for the school compared to the private business model, and we aim to continue the event's success in 2024.

Summer Fair Saturday, June 8th

Timings are to be confirmed close to the date, but it usually takes place between 12:00 and 16:00.

We will be looking for volunteers and area leads to help divide and conquer this year's fair. More information will be available at the next PC meeting.
