Visit from Luther Blissett, OBE DL

It was a very special day for our school on Wednesday. Luther Blissett, OBE DL came to visit and took part in the official opening of our Rooftop Playground extension. He had a tour of the school, met the majority of the children in their classrooms. had afternoon tea with the Active Eagles and kindly signed a book and a couple of footballs.

We are thankful to Luther Blissett for making the time to come to visit us and we are thankful to Regal London for extending our wonderful rooftop playground.

Thank you to Mr Sewell for coming into school over the summer holiday to help with the construction of the extension.

Visit to Watford FC Vicarage Road Stadium

The Year 6 children visited the Watford Football Club ground this week. They had a tour of the Vicarage Road stadium, visited the players’ changing rooms and sat in some very special chairs. The children had a fantastic time and  made a great impression on the Watford FC staff who were impressed by their enthusiasm and positive approach.
