A Victorian Spectacle: Year 6  Assembly

Year 6 children delighted their families today with an amazing assembly relaying some of the historic from Victorian times.  They explained about the poverty and life experiences that some children had to suffer in those days but also shone a light (via Thomas Edison) on the wonders of the Industrial Revolution.  It was lovely to watch and their singing was stunning.  

Nursery and the Three Bears

As part of our Number of the Week, which focuses on the number 3, we have been looking at the story Goldilocks and the Three Bears. We have told the story using props, sorted objects into small, medium and large, and have made some porridge. The children helped to mixed up the oats with the milk before cooking them in the microwave. The children then tried some; some of them said it was too hot, some said it was just right and some said NO THANK YOU! 

Year 2 Examine Local History

On Thursday, Year 2 visited Kingston by bus to see some of the places we have learnt about in our History topic - our local area. 

We saw the Coronation Stone and the market place as well as the Clattern Bridge and Guildhall doorway. 

We had a brilliant time!

Natural Historians: Year 4

On Thursday 3rd October, Year 4 travelled to the Natural History Museum to support their science topic of classification. The children have been learning all about animal characteristics and how to use classification keys. While we were there, we saw amphibians, insects, mammals, fish, birds, arachnids, arthropods and even discovered whether the dinosaurs were vertebrates or invertebrates. 

Everyone had a brilliant day and we are so grateful to the parent helpers. 

Wellbeing Ambassadors Take Over Assembly

This Wednesday our Year 6 Wellbeing Ambassadors led an exciting assembly.  They spoke confidently and asked many thought provoking questions. 

They described different scenarios and asked children to place the gingerbread man on an emotion scale from 1 to 10.  All children were engaged and listened carefully. 

They ended with an important message:

JUST BREATHE

You are strong enough to handle your challenges,

Wise enough to find a solution to your problems, 

And capable enough to do whatever needs to be done

This is the full safeguarding team in school. They are all trained to Level 3 and everyone in the school received the annual update of Safeguarding Level 2 training at INSET.
