Weekly round-up: Spring Term Week 10

This morning, in honour of St Patrick’s Day, Penny and Izzy, both wearing suitably ‘leprechaun green’ hair bobbles, hoisted the Irish national flag and Mr Chapman played Sinéad O’Connor’s Nothing Compares 2 U as the children arrived for Assembly.  It was a great way to start the day!
