What makes a ‘good’ day at Castle Carrock? When the children tell me that they have enjoyed a lesson and that they love coming to school to learn.

Things to remember:
- PE days are Wednesdays and Friday

- A healthy snack for break time .
- Listening to your child read at home will really help them in their learning journey. A little every day goes a long way.
