End Of Year Wrap - As we approach the end of the school year I would like to take the opportunity to extend a warm thank you to all of our school families along with our wider school and Raywood community. We are really thankful for the support given to our school across this year in many different ways and it is of course our students who benefit the most as each little bit of support builds the puzzle that supports their learning and wellbeing whilst with us at school. We look forward to working with everyone again next year.

Summer Holiday School Works - Over the summer break you may notice some works being completed at school. We will be having some landscape gardeners onsite from mid-January completing some works to 'renovate' the front entrance to our school and we are excited to see this modernised space once school returns.

Sustainability Excursion - A reminder that on Monday we will be travelling to Bridgewater Primary School for a whole-school excursion to attend an activity day based around Sustainability.
