Today, Year 4 had a fantastic time raising money for #ChildrenInNeed by coming to school dressed in spots, stripes, or Pudsey-themed outfits! We also explored books from our reading corner, discussing themes related to Children in Need and deepening our understanding of others.

After our visit to the church, Year 4 used the names engraved on the church’s war memorial to create their own crosses. They attached handmade poppies to each cross, honoring those remembered. These crosses can now be seen in our Trinity Garden at OFS. #RememberanceDay2024
