• REMEMBRANCE DAY - MONDAY 11 NOVEMBER 2019

  Wed 13 Nov 2019
  We were extremely proud of our Year 6 Prefects who attended the Ceremony on Monday of this week. They were a credit to the school. We were pleased to receive the following email from a parent "Just a quick email to express my personal appreciation and thanks to the
  school for showing your respects at today's 11am remembrance parade in
  Cullompton Town Centre
  
  Attending the parade myself in my military uniform it was great to see the
  young people of Willowbank representing the school and behaving extremely
  well" (I wouldn't have expected anything else)
