The school were honoured to be invited to the event, attended by hundreds of headteachers and school leaders from all over Northamptonshire, Peterborough and Rutland. Tom Sherrington, a highly regarded Education Consultant and CPD Provider, spoke at the event. The children performed exceptionally well and the school received comments on the conduct of the Year 3, 4 and 5 pupils. Peter Cantley, Director of Education at The Peterborough Board of Education, sent a special message to the school: 'I thought your children were fabulous. They showed how confident and thoughtful they are, and conducted themselves with grace and humility. They are such a credit to you and all your staff. They are just the most delightful children'. Ted Entwislte, Year 3, said: 'I was really excited to show all the headteachers what we could do!' Congratulations to all the children and to Mrs Brown, Year 3 and 4 teacher, for preparing the singers, BSL signers and speakers so well!
