This is a page dedicated to celebrating our children's successes. Teachers post photos and information regularly on the blog. Parents/Grandparents/Friends of the school are able to leave constructive comments that we can pass back to the children. This is a great way to keep in touch and for you to know what is happening in the classroom and/or school.
