Our crew charity donations so far!

Thank you so much for all of your generosity. We only have a small handful of tags left so would really appreciate if anyone would be kind enough to take them.

Some of our children will be taking them with me to the RSPCA next week just in time for Christmas!

KS1 Pride of Plover

Congratulations to our latest winners of the Pride of Plover. We heard lovely stories about growing confidence, more independence, great learning behaviours and brilliant progress. It was fabulous to hear how hard our children are working to get smart. Well done, everyone!

We have more animal tags on our trees!

We have been blown away with the generosity of our Plover crew with all of the donations for our crew charity- the RSPCA. Our tree had been emptied on day one of adding the tags so we have added some more. Please feel free to take one if you would like to help.

Thank you so so much to all those of you who have donated so far. We are so grateful!
