Toy Library Donations

If you have good quality toys that are suitable for 0-3 year olds, please bring them with you on the day and donate them at the gates. For a list of particular toys the Children’s Centre are looking for, click here.

Toy Library

/in /by

Our wonderful Children’s Centre are looking for good quality donations to start a toy library.

With your generous donations we’ll be able to help many families in our local community. Being able to borrow a variety of toys will be stimulating for the babies and toddlers and may provide a little respite to weary parents!

Donations must be clean, complete and in full working order and can be brought to either the school reception or directly to the Children’s Centre. Donations can also be brought to StoneX Stadium on 1st February for those attending the match at 3pm.

This is a practical way to support local families and we look forward to receiving many donations from our caring community.

Science Museum

/in /by

To consolidate our learning of electricity, Year 4 visited the Science Museum and explored all things circuits and voltage.

It was so exciting travelling into central London and visiting such an enormous, world-class museum.

In the Wonderlab we experienced watching lightning strikes before our eyes, discovered the power of electricity when we watched the Tesla Coil charge 1,000,000 volts right in front of us, and got to play with forces.

We are very excited to begin our new unit ‘Animals Including Humans’ in Autumn 2.

Black History Month

/in /by

The theme of Black History Month this year was ‘reclaiming narratives’.

Each class looked at a different figure from history, such as Mary Jane Seacole, Martin Luther King and Lewis Latimer.

The children then did a fantastic job of presenting to one another in assembly. Learning about these inspirational lives was fascinating for pupils and staff alike.

Autumn Balls

/in /by

Autumn Balls were the perfect way to start the half term break at the end of October.

On the final day of term children came to school in their own clothes so that they were ready to dance after school.

The event was organised by the school council and we all enjoyed the refreshments that had been donated by Costco and Tesco.

Money raised from the event will be spent on new playground equipment.

Year 4 Power Prints

/in /by

Year 4 Lion class have been learning about power prints this term. The children used crayons to draw creative patterns and then painted over them with black paint.

Once dried, they were able to scratch out their abstract designs with toothpicks using the technique of hatching . You can see the colourful patterns they drew in the previous lesson coming to life!

Bikeability

/in /by

Year 5 and 6 pupils took part in a week-long Bikeability course, run by exert trainers from the Department for Transport’s national cycle training provider.

The children learnt how to maintain their bikes, glide, control their bikes, pedal and be aware of their surroundings. All in the traffic-free safety of the school playground.

The children thoroughly enjoyed the experience and now have greater confidence to enjoy cycling safely.

 

 

Indoor Planetarium

/in /by

The Wonderdome landed at Saracens Bell Lane today, to take us on a trip through our solar system and beyond.

Children were amazed during an immersive experience into the wonders of space with our fabulous presenter Matt.

Year 5, who are currently studying Space in their science unit, and Year 6, who studied this topic last year, got to boost their knowledge to new heights whilst some of our more sensory seekers enjoyed a relaxing visual journey through the cosmos.

Chromebooks

/in /by

A generous donation from The Priory Foundation has funded new chromebooks to enhance the children’s learning.

The trolleys purchased at the same time mean the laptops are stored safely and readily accessible.

Perhaps you could ask your son or daughter how they’ve been using the chromebooks in their lessons – I’m sure they’ll be able to teach you something new!

Macmillan Coffee Morning

/in /by

After school drop-off on 16th October we welcomed friends and families to join us for tea and cake and a chance to get to know one another.

We were delighted to receive donations of exquisitie cakes from school families as well as local community champions Apollo Bakeries and Hyper Food Centre.

Our coffee morning, and after-school cake sale, raised an incredible £368 for Macmillan Cancer Support, a charity that supports the 3 million people in the UK living with cancer.

Please check our website and Class Dojo regularly for news of future opportunities to meet together.
