My girls enjoying the garden........

and 1 for the pot!
(not really)

On Saturday children and staff braved the weather around Withypool building up for the Exmoor Challenge at the end of April. Meanwhile I was chicken and stayed at home.

Next week starts with a visit from the schools' library service. Nicola (librarian) will be visiting most classes enthusing the children with her passion for books and leaving us lots of new titles for specific year groups.

The year 6 will be visiting Uffculme to do maths with Laurence Eve building on the work he has done with them at Kentisbeare.

The year 5 children have been working with dancer Mandi from Daisy and I'm looking forward to going to the Barnfield Theatre to see them perform along with other talented Devon children and young adults. Look out for the date in future newsletters.

Tuesday is Internet Safety Day and we intend to raise awareness in assemblies and class activities.

I'll be away from school the rest of the week with other headteachers in the Culm Valley attending briefings on future funding, organisation of the local authority and the possible impact on schools.

Have a good week.
