Community Links
At Goldthorn Park Primary School we encourage links with our local community.

Year 5 Choir Performance
Year 5 choir members took part in our annual singing event at St Barts Church. They sung a variety of songs - some tricky, but certainly rose to the challenge!

Well done to all children involved today.
