Well done to Zac, Brendan, Nana & Jack F for getting their Bronze Merit Certificates.
Roman Day
Steve Manning came into school on Wednesday to run workshops for all the classes about Romans.
He mesmerised Webburn and they got to see a replica shield and couldn’t believe how big it was. It was nearly as big as them! They saw the armour a soldier would have
worn and all the weapons. They enjoyed learning how to march in lines, this is much trickier than you think. They finished their day listening to a Roman soldier tell a story about Romulus and Remus.
Please remember to make your £3 payment on ParentPay to help towards the costs of this day.
After School Clubs
A reminder that, due to staff training, there will be no after school clubs next Monday.
