Lost Property

The lost property boxes at both schools are overflowing.  Please come and check to see if any of the items belong to your child, as anything left at the end of term will be disposed of.  The box at the Lower School is located in the playground under the scooter shelter and at the Upper School, in the dining hall where the children put their lunch boxes; this can be accessed by parents before school when the door is open or by the children during the school day.

 

The Word of the Week was

Upper School           opulence    – ‘large and excessive amounts of wealth’

Lower School            glum           – ‘looking or feeling gloomy and disappointed’
