FRPS/BBC 500 Words Competition 2024

We received a mountain of entries for our in-school competition this year and you can see our winners below. We are also delighted to announce that one of our pupils, Ash, has made it all the way to the final 50 nationally in the BBC competition and has been invited to Buckingham Palace! More to follow on that!
