         <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>Junior Leadership Team</strong></p><p>We are delighted to introduce our Junior Leadership Team (JLT) for this academic year. The team is made up of elected representatives from Years 3 to 6 who proudly act as the voice of the pupils at Sandfield.</p><p>The JLT meets regularly to share ideas, discuss ways to improve school life, and help bring about positive changes across the school community. Through their leadership role, members work collaboratively to ensure that pupils' views are heard and valued.</p><p>Their current project focuses on enhancing our outdoor spaces. The team is gathering ideas from pupils about new playground markings and is helping to select new seating and tables for the playground. We look forward to seeing their ideas come to life and making our playtimes even more enjoyable for everyone.</p><p><br/></p><p>Wishing you all a lovey weekend.</p><p>Mrs Collins</p>]]></description>

Good work everyone!</p><p><br><strong><em>PE days for Year 3 &amp; Year 4 are Tuesdays &amp; Fridays</em></strong></p>]]></description>
