Most of our neighbours are trying to drop off their own children or get to work just like you so please ensure they have access to their homes at all time.If a dispute arises, we ask that you model for your child our school&#39;s core values and speak with kindness and respect. Thank you for your continued co-operation.If you do see an unattended car parked incorrectly around our local streets, then please use the link below to report the car. https://www.hants.gov.uk/transport/parking/parkingcontravention.]]></description>

        <title>Paperchain - Primary sites</title>
        <description><![CDATA[We are going ahead with our paperchain fundraiser again this year. Your child should have brought home information and an envelope containing 10 paperchains that can be bought for &amp;amp;pound;1 each. Please make sure that you write your child&#39;s name and class on the back of each paperchain you wish to purchase and return it to school. Once they are back in school we will link them all together to create a giant chain. On a chosen date someone will cut the paper chain in 4 places and whoever&#39;s paper chain is cut wins a prize. There will be 4 winners at each site.]]></description>
