What are we like?  Well, as a staff we make time to have a laugh together, enjoy being with the children, rummage through lost property, use up gluesticks, file things in safe places, eat plenty of chocolate, dress up, spend probably far too long at school, organise trips, clap, join in and generally have a great time at work!  Check out our videos and our Book Week photos on our Facebook page to see how we entertain the children!
