This featured Mardi Gras celebrations on Tuesday, bringing colour and energy to our day with purple, green and gold outfits, pancake races, delicious pancakes, vibrant masks, and a joyful carnival dance in the playground.

The following day, the mood shifted as we marked the start of Lent with an Ash Wednesday Mass at church, joining the rest of KS2 for this special time of reflection and prayer.

On Thursday, we were back in costume again, this time to celebrate World Book Day. Well done to everyone for your efforts—there was a great range of characters on show!
