The School Council have organised a Christmas disco for all year groups with special guests, DJ Bould and DJ Webb. Also, during last summer, James and Rebecca Hire organised their own cake sale and made lots of money. In November we held are very successful Grandparents afternoon Tea which raised an amazing £505.
