Educational visits and trips: Lledr Hall, Science and Industry Museum, and more to be planned!
Visitors and workshops: PSHE with Ant, Fit-Fence
Personal development and enrichment: Reading Buddies in Reception, Sports Leaders, and Lunchtime Helpers.
Special experiences: End of year celebrations!

Please note that some activities may be subject to change throughout the year.
