Two of our kind-hearted pupils Edward and Otto came up with the idea last term to do a reverse advent calendar to help those in need of help at Christmas time. The food they collected was then delivered to Redditch Food Bank and The Basement Project to support their work at the busiest time of year. 

On Tuesday 14th January, the children in Year 2 experienced an exciting and informative visit to the Barber Institute in Birmingham, as part of their Art and Design study.  

Kind-hearted runner Kasey Newton has decided to set herself a Runuary challenge. Determined to do something to help research into cystic fibrosis, after her cousin’s diagnosis, Kasey is running a mile a day, despite the rainy, blustery weather conditions of late. Well done Kasey, keep on running….!

Congratulations to talented violinist Willem VdHB, who has recently enjoyed a double celebration of his musical ability.
