  Happy Easter:

  In our end of term assembly, we celebrated another exciting term filled with a range of events and special moments that enhanced learning for children.

   

  It was lovely to welcome Nursery parents and carers into school today for their Easter Extravaganza! The children sang beautifully and enjoyed this experience.

   

  Thank you to Millfield PTA for organising the exciting Easter Egg Hunts for Millfield children today.

   

  Have a lovely Easter break with family and friends. We look forward to seeing everyone return to school on Monday 15^th April.

  Ducks at Millfield:

  Currently, ducks have chosen Millfield as their home! We are so excited to watch and learn about our new friends. When entering and leaving the school site please encourage children and their younger siblings to be respectful and keep their distance from the ducks. As we would like them to settle at Millfield, please don’t chase them away!

  Fundraising for charity:

  Jack, who is in Year 4 at Millfield, has shared a very moving and inspiring personal act of kindness. He has cut and donated his hair to The Little Princess Trust, this coupled with his successful fundraising efforts, truly showcases his compassion for others. It's heartwarming to see someone so young take such a significant step to help others, especially in honour of his Granny. Huge congratulations to Jack on raising £260 [130% of his target] and for being such a positive force. We are all very proud of you Jack!
