Mr Croker is Jumping for Joy!!



Our fearless headteacher, John Croker, is putting his money where his mouth, has been certified fit (but possibly insane!) by medical professionals and has promised to undertake a bungee jump.
The 'jump' will take place on Saturday November 26th in Bristol.

To encourage Mr Croker in this feat, there will be a donations box in the School Office. The target is £434, equivalent to £1 per child in the school - so come on, show Mr Croker how brave/slightly crazy (delete as appropriate) you think he is, throw in your loose change/donations, then sit back and let him jump!

The children will be able to see a recording of the event
Good luck Mr Croker!
