    Dear Parents and ChildrenIt is so wonderful to be able to share with you the

    achievements of our children. Friday 20th April saw

    over twenty children from our school participating inGlobal Rock. What a wonderful performance! The

    children represented the school in a professional and

    mature manner. All the teachers were very proud of

    their achievements. The work of the children was

    recognized by two awards for best drama and best

    positive inclusion. Well done to the children and to all the staff concerned. A big

    thank you to our parents who supported by attending the event and especially to

    those who made costumes.
