It has been a very busy week after our half term break and the D Day commemorations have been front-and-centre of our thinking and prayers, this week. In Collective Worship yesterday, I was delighted to shared some of Mr Gunstone’s photos from his visit to Normandy and surrounding areas. It very much brought home the magnitude of D Day and the days before and following. Our Year 6 also added some fantastic details, as they had just received a great session from Somerset Museum Service. Altogether, it was a very powerful day.
Again, sports teams have excelled and we now have regional finals to attend in the coming weeks. Girls’ and Boys’ cricket and football squads have done great jobs and now face a wider challenge in their pursuits!
