The kids, the staff and the parents have had so much fun on Fun Fridays this past year. We've had Odd Socks Day, Whacky Hair Day, Pyjama Day, Christmas Jumper Day, Christmas Hat and Hairband Day, Jersey Day, Disco Day, Dress as a Grown Up Day, Extra Break Time Day, Wear What You Want Day. And we think it's fair to say it has lifted everyone's spirits and given us all something fun to focus on each week. Thanks to all the fabulous kids and parents for making the effort and to our super teachers for joining in with the fun.
