Golden book nominations 9th October

This month, our school value is safety. This is always an important value, but even more so this year, as we have lots of new safety measures around our school. We spent lots of time learning these new measures in September and we are so impressed with how many pupils are nominated this week for showing such a fantastic awareness of safety - both for themselves and for others. 

Have a read of our nominations for this week; are so proud!

• Noah in Sarah L's class walked so safely in his classroom. He took his time walking to the sink and safely got in line. Well done Noah!
• Dominic, Azlan, Fiachra, Vas and Mahian from Deirdre's S.I. were safe and careful pod leaders this week.
