Our Year 4's took to the stage at the Mattioli Arena on Tuesday evening. It was such a wonderful experience to be in front of such a large audience. The children’s favourite song was ‘Viking Warrior’, which they sang beautifully. Mrs Evans is a very proud teacher. @Rise_MAT

We’d like to say thank you again to Mira for clearing our forest area. Thanks to their efforts, our Class 1 children were able to enjoy pond-dipping! The children had a great time exploring and they were especially excited to discover a newt! @Mira @Rise_MAT #flourishandsucceed

Over the Easter holidays, we had Mira come in to help with our forest area. They've done a fantastic job de-weeding and tidying the space, making it much more inviting. They've also added bird and bat boxes to encourage local wildlife. A big thank you to Mira! @MIRAEngineering

Over the Easter holidays, we were lucky to have a team of volunteers from Caterpillar come into school to help transform our garden. They’ve done an absolutely fantastic job tidying and creating a wonderful space for our children to enjoy. @CaterpillarInc #Caterpillar100
