Welcome

Today we proudly celebrated the official opening of our EY1 playground. We planted a symbolic flower to represent each child in EY1, representing our school motto ‘Learning and Growing Together’. A huge thank you to local favourite Mabel's Ice Cream Parlour for generously donating ice cream to help us celebrate. We welcomed Mr Declan McGrady, an esteemed member of our governors to visit and cut the ribbon. Mr McGrady addressed staff and family members: “It is a great pleasure to welcome you all today to the official opening of this wonderful playground. This space has been thoughtfully designed to support the needs, joy, and development of our children with special educational needs, and it reflects our shared commitment to inclusion, care, and opportunity for every child. “Outdoor play is not just a break from learning — it is where learning, confidence, and wellbeing grow.” - For children with special educational needs, outdoor play is especially powerful, supporting physical development, communication, independence, and emotional wellbeing. On behalf of the Board of Governors I would like to thank everyone who has contributed their time, expertise and support to make this possible. Today is a celebration of what we can achieve together, and most importantly, a celebration of our children in EY1.”
