🔎 Progress Review Day - 14 April 2026
We will be holding our Summer Term Progress Review Day on Tuesday 14th April from 8:00am-5:00pm. This is a great opportunity to come into school and have a 15-minute meeting with your child’s class teacher to review their progress this academic year. Please remember that non-attendance for your meeting means your child will be marked absent for the day. Students are expected to attend the meeting with their parents/carer in full school uniform.
The sign-up window opens on Saturday 21st March at 6:00pm and will close on Monday 13th April at 8:00am. Please log on to MCAS to book your appointment.

🏐 Netball Fixtures
The ODA Netball Team showed major effort in their final 3 matches this week. 1 draw and 2 losses. A big thank you to the parents and carers who came out to cheer the team on and to Prince and Iván for their leadership!
🤧 Hay Fever - Medication Process
Hay fever season is approaching. For children who suffer from hay fever and require medication, please complete the medical request form here or via MCAS. We would recommend that, whenever possible, medication is given before and after they come to school.
