Here are the key dates for the coming months in school. Families will receive separate messages about many of them, but it's always helpful to have an overview so that you can drop them in your diary and plan in advance.

I have to say that the children have made a spectacular start to 2025. The atmosphere in school is exactly as we would like it - great behaviour and really excellent attitudes towards learning.

 I am currently acting as Headteacher at Nettleham Infant and Nursery School and it has been really positive to work with both schools and continue to build closer ties. The plan is to ensure that we see lots of benefits from this arrangement for all pupils in both Nettleham schools.

Here are the key dates, Inevitably there may be the occasional, unavoidable change as we go through the year (and plenty of exciting additions).
