Pupil Christmas Lunch

Christmas lunch will be served to the children on Wednesday 17th December.  Please ensure you make a selection for your child prior to this date to ensure the kitchen can serve the meal of your child’s choice.

All children and staff are invited to wear their Christmas jumpers (if they wish to do so) for the children’s Christmas Lunch on Wednesday 17th December.  Children should wear their usual uniform and Christmas jumpers can be worn in place of the usual school jumper / cardigan.

La Plume Francaise

We are very fortunate to welcome seven A-level French students from Harrow School, who visit us every Wednesday for French conversation practice. As we approach the DELF examination early next year, we will use these sessions for focused Production Orale preparation.

Recently, pupils have been reading the Sami et Julie books together. Adelina (Year 5) commented, “The students are very kind to us. Today, we were reading the books and they were also helping us to memorise vocabulary.” 

It is a wonderful opportunity for our pupils to meet older role models from our community and to share our language learning together.

News from Reception

The children in Reception have been exploring the traditional tale Goldilocks and the Three Bears. They have been retelling the story using the Tales Toolkit symbols, focusing on the character, setting, problem, and solution. Alongside this, they have been busy making porridge in class. The children loved mixing the ingredients and listening carefully to instructions. They enjoyed choosing their own toppings and having their porridge with their peers.

In Maths, we have been exploring shapes, with a strong focus on triangles and circles. We learned that a triangle has three sides, three corners, and three angles. The children also enjoyed creating their own circles using string attached to pencils, helping them understand that a circle has no sides because it is round.
