Some of our children have been selected to attend the ‘Greenwood Academies Trust Indoor Athletics Competition’ at Braunstone Leisure Centre.  The children will be competing in athletics events against other Greenwood Academies Trust schools.

'Hazard Alley' was the first purpose-built safety education centre in the UK, designed to give visitors a unique interactive learning experience.  During a tour in their 'life size' village, the children will encounter a range of 'hazards' giving them the opportunity to develop vital knowledge and strategies on how to stay safe.
