Calling all parents…

Are you interested in getting more involved?

We have space for parents on our Governing Body. We meet every term and support the staff in making decisions about the nursery school and children's centre and planning for the future.

Some parents have already expressed an interest.

If you would like to as well please let Julian know by Tuesday 14 July and we will get in touch to talk to you about what it would involve. It's a great chance to find out more about Kate Greenaway and great for your CV too.

You can also find out more about being a school governor here.

Lucy Lloyd - Chair of the Governing Body
Andrea Ledward – Vice Chair of the Governing Body


Kate Greenaway Fun Day and picnic

A big thank you for everyone who came along, and special thanks for course to all those who helped to set up and tidy up at the end. We thought it was a really successful event, especially as it looked like it was going to rain for the most of the morning! We’ll give you an exact figure for how much we raised once we have taken all the expenses off, but it’s around £250. We will put it towards the development of the Pod garden, where we are planning to have a willow tunnel installed and a sand garden built during the next 12 months.

We’re already planning our next event, which is going to be on Friday September 18th. On that day, we are planning to launch our Community Kitchen and have stalls focussing on cooking and eating, and helping children to stay healthy. If you have any good ideas or would like to help plan this event – please contact Julian.
