How we communicate

We use a parent communication app called Weduc as the primary method of communication with our parents. 

We use Weduc to:

  • Send and receive messages (which parents receive as app notifications)
  • Share letters and newsletters
  • Share key dates on our calendar
  • Share what’s been going on at the school in our newsfeed
  • Share useful links in ‘The Hub’

School Uniform

We have thought carefully about our school uniform and have chosen it to be comfortable and practical for primary aged children whilst also being affordable for families. Our sweatshirt/cardigan is the only piece of school uniform where it is important that the School logo is present.

School Meals

We offer a balanced and nutritious school meals menu where children are encouraged to try a variety of new foods.
