Halloween 2025

As ever there was great excitement for our annual Halloween parade which took place on our school yard this year.

Huge credit must go to all who helped design and create such magnificent costumes. There was so much creativity on display throughout the classes. 😁

We encouraged the use of recycled costumes this year as part of our Green Schools initiative and the standard was extremely high.

Our panel of secret judges had a tough job on their hands to pick award winners from each class.

Please see our video reel below for a flavour of the amazing costumes on display around our school today.

Mid-term Break

We hope all pupils, parents, and staff enjoy a well-earned rest during the midterm break.

Happy Halloween
