Message From Mrs Dance
Dear parents and carers,
I hope that you have all had a great week, what glorious weather we have had!
I’m delighted to share some exciting news with you. A few months ago, Miss Marta enroled our school in an Eco-Art Challenge, and I’m delighted to announce that one of our children is a winner! Congratulations to:

by Delilah (Brazil Class)
Children from KS1 were invited to showcase their creativity by creating their favourite tree. They had a fantastic lesson about the importance of caring for trees and our environment, which inspired around 30 incredible artworks! Today, the Mayor, Cllr and Mrs Jeffrey attended Owlet Assembly alongside Mr Richard Barnes, CCP associate and former deputy mayor of London, and representatives from So Recycle, the sponsor of the Andover Eco Art Challenge, to congratulate Delilah and give her her award. Delilah has won £50 for herself and £200 for the school. We are going to use the money to purchase a printing machine that will be used in art lessons. Congratulations Delilah!
Yesterday was the start of May and also the start of Walk to School week. As part of our travel plan, we are encouraging as many families as possible to use the park and stride scheme.

Finally, next Thursday 8th May, is VE day. At school we will be having a week of activities to highlight this important day. The children will listen to assemblies, talks from visitors as well as celebrating with VE Day activities on the actual day. I cannot wait to see all the children and staff in their dress to impress outfits on Thursday. I look forward to welcoming you all after school on Thursday to our VE celebration family picnic.
Wishing you all a lovely bank holiday weekend.
Mrs. Dance
Headteacher
