Achieving, Succeeding, Believing

Weekly News 21 December 2012

Note from the Interim HeadteacherFiona Taylor
I cannot believe that a whole term has gone by. They say time flies when you are enjoying yourself! What an amazing start we have had to the academic year, and we intend to continue with the improvements within school. A big thank you for your, kindness, generosity, support and honesty. The school would not be the place it is without this, and of course the wonderful children who make us all proud on a daily basis. Thank you also to the staff, governors and the PTA (who are constantly working behind the scenes). From all of the staff at Ashburnham Community School we hope you have a happy and restful festive season

Top table invitation: Children invited to Top Table on Friday 11 January are: Skye Langley, Stephen Mendoza, Luke Harris, Boubacar Stanley, Mahmoud Taher, Metis Karn & Nafees-ul Haque The children were chosen to have lunch on the top table because they were seen to follow the school rules by the lunch time supervisors.
