  Ash class went on a school trip to Llangollen as part of their History topic this term- 'Transport from the past'. We visited Llangollen Wharf and Heritage Railway and we had a wonderful day. We had a trip on a horse drawn boat, ate our lunch on a Christmas boat and later visited the railway where we were lucky enough to have a tour of the workshop.

• Safety Squad News

  Mon 13 Nov 2023 Mrs Hedley

  Cockshutt’s and Criftins’ Safety Squad met up in person this afternoon.  The group talked about their ideas for the next topic to be covered.  Both groups came up with some great ideas, and demonstrated the power and creativity of their collective voices.  Each child designed their own Safety Squad logo, which will be used on future projects.  The finished design will be a combination of all ideas.  Thank you to Mrs Careless Jones for bringing the group over!
