Lost Property

We currently have numerous school blazers at Reception which have been handed in over recent weeks. Unfortunately, they are all unnamed blazers, so we have been unable to reunite them with their owner. If your child is currently missing their blazer please ask them to visit the Reception before 9am, Friday 18th July, as they may be able to identify their own blazer.

Please may we remind parents/carers to write your child's name on all of their belongings so that we can return any lost items to them. If belongings are handed in to us, and they are named, we will contact the student directly, so please ask your child to check their school email account to see if we have messaged them.
