Welcome back, we hope you have all had a wonderful holiday and are ready for the year ahead.
The children have all settled back into school very well and have shown us that they have great expectations for the year ahead. We can’t wait to see what your children are going to achieve within the next term.
Merry from Christmas to all parents, carers, friends and families from all of the children and staff at Stanhope Primary School.

Santa Claus took time out of his busy schedule to visit the children in Foundation Stage, Year 1 and Year 2. He told them all about the preparations for Christmas and warned them to continue to be good. He said is was checking his list (twice).
