🎄Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
As we come to the end of the autumn term, we want to say a big thank you to our school community for your ongoing support.
To our children, families, wider community and staff, thank you for the energy, dedication, and teamwork you’ve brought throughout the year. It’s been a busy and positive start to the year, and we’re proud of everything that’s been achieved.
Take a look at the first edition of the Plover Press to see some of the term’s highlights!
We wish everyone a happy, restful Christmas break and look forward to welcoming you back in the new year.

A Seasonal Message from XP Trust
A number of deaf and hearing pupils from Plover School and the ARChi team have been working collaboratively on a British Sign Language version of the Twelve Days of Christmas.
This is another example of diversity and belonging that runs through our schools and is a concrete example of our culture of Crew.
On behalf of XP Trust, we would like to wish everyone a peaceful Christmas and New Year.

It’s school shop time!
Our Year 6’s have loved spending time at the school shop this morning. We have had lots of 3 and 4 children which means they have been working hard, getting smart and being kind. Year 6 have earned lots of crew coins this term and I am so proud. Our class pledge is that ALL children will be 4’s! We can do this! 🥰

Merry Christmas!
We would like to thank all Parents, Carers and families for attending our Christmas Nativity this week. We hope it got you feeling in the spirit of the season as we get closer to the big day. All of the children have worked really hard to put on the performances for you and they have shown great courage and resilience in doing so. We are very proud of them! As promised, below are the images of your children. We wish you all a restful and peaceful Christmas holiday and a happy and successful New Year.

Giving back to our community and supporting our Crew charity- the RSPCA
We are so thankful for all of your support and generous donations towards our whole school Crew charity the RSPCA. Nelly, Darcy and Riley were honoured to take the donations to the centre today and they even managed to meet Sunny and Rain- two beautiful puppies- who have recently found their forever homes. With your continued support, we aim to help all animals at the RSPCA find their forever homes!
There are going to be some very happy animals on Christmas morning thanks to all of you!
