Gardening Club Update
The children took it easy yesterday in the heat, lots of water for the plants and moving the Captain Tom memorial tree from its previous location to between the tables of gratitude.
Emi, James and Gary were the first three children from Hummingbirds to get their tokens to use the book vending machine for reading 275 times this school year!
Some very proud children and staff!
