Summer Activities and Support - 2018 Dear Parents/Carers, We appreciate that whilst it is lovely for your son/daughter to have six weeks off school, this can be a long period to keep them entertained. We have tried to put together below a list of some of the things that are happening in the local area over the summer. Also included are sources of help and support for you should the need arise. Please remember we are still here for you over the holidays, so you can get in contact on my mobile 07799547594 and we will do our best to help. Have a great summer; let us hope the sun shines.
