7th April 2022

After such a tricky term with so many of our community affected by COVID, it was an absolute pleasure to end the term with so many highlights. 
 
Monday we took all our children to St James' for our Easter service. It was the first time all our children had been together at the church for over two years. You wouldn't have known it however! The walk to church was a pleasure, the children's behaviour wonderful and their singing was beautiful. Follow this link for the review and for photos Easter Service .
 
Tuesday we celebrated our half term cup winners and what a celebration it was! There were so many wonderful stories to tell; children who had flourished and blossomed just like the spring flowers. It truly made all our hearts sing!
 
Thank you to everyone in the Alveston Family and our wider community for all your support this half term. We look forward to seeing everyone back in school on Monday 25th April.
 
Wishing you all a wonderful Easter break,
 
Anne Clewley
Head Teacher
