I would like to thank Michail and his mum Dr Androulaki for their dentistry workshop Mr Elizondo for their presentations. These parent visits were well received by all and add real life examples from the wider world.

It was particularly wonderful to see Nursery in all of their colourful costumes and I would like to say a special thank you to James and Ava in Y6 as well as Filip in Y4 who were wonderful quiz consultants.
