Every year, students from the Hammond School visit us with a drama workshop. This year the theme was “Caring and Sharing”, (an old favourite of Mrs. Johnson as it happens) and years 5 and 6 had a terrific morning. We were particularly pleased, as we always are, to see one of our ex-pupils, looking very grown up and confident. Many thanks to all the multi-talented Hammond students and staff for including us in their whistle-stop tour. ... Continue reading this entry »

Well done to all who organised and attended the FSDF Barn Dance at All Saints Church last Saturday. The dancing may not have been as synchronised as the Y1 class last year but was approached with enthusiasm with everyone taking part. The Devil's fire band were brilliant and the food provided extremely tasty. Can someone tell me where to get the Chilli and Lemon Grass pate from? Best of all the FSDF raised over £800 to go to the Countess ... Continue reading this entry »

We discovered that when you take time to stop, ... Continue reading this entry »
