It's the first week of the new year and the children in years 2 and 3 are off to a flying start! From learning how to draw shapes with a ruler to fantastic creative writing and fascinating historical facts, the children have started 2025 with an obvious determination to do their best. Well done Lower Phase!
Year 6 exhibited their conceptual sculptures about climate change in Rosen Hall
Take a look at the learning that has been going on across the Upper Phase as part of our last recognition assembly of the calendar year!
It was a real pleasure to listen to the children speak so confidently about their learning this morning! They enthusiastically explained exactly what they had enjoyed the most about their lessons and were able to give us details about how they had overcome challenges that they faced. We were all very impressed and highly entertained. Well done years 2 and 3!
Back in 2023, our Climate Champions, led by Ms Lepere, raised the issue of the unsafe crossing at Lausanne Rd. This is a key route to school for many of our children and families are faced with a daily dash to the other side!
The Climate Champions came together to call for action. With the support of both the community and Ms Lepere, the children wrote to local Councillor, Gavin Edwards. He wrote back saying he would look into it, thanking the children for raising the matter, and promising action.
Some tasty maths and geography for you to look at this week!
It's not long until the children in years 2 and 3 will gather to celebrate the excellent achievements of their friends in this week's Recognition Assembly. We are lucky enough to have maths, writing, science and RE to look at this week - have a peek and prepare to be impressed!
A final night of fun followed by a fond farewell to PGL
Time for Year 4 and Year 5 to shine, as Year 6 are otherwise occupied with their residential school journey.
Another week, another fabulous selection of learning! The teachers have selected their 'stand-out' children this week and have expressed how proud they are of the extra effort the children have put in. One of our contributors was a little trickier to represent here, as she managed to conquer her fears and master the troublesome backward roll in gymnastics - we're hoping for a live demonstration in assembly this morning!
4 seasons in one day, 4 different types of precipitation, lots of fun.
"You want me to jump off this 8m wobbly tower?" is exactly the type of question you want to hear, especially when followed by a leap.
