  • Remembrance Assembly

    Sat 12 Nov 2016 MCL
    On the 11th November, at 11 O'clock, pupils, staff, family and special guests observed a two minute silence in remembrance. In our assembly, children read poems and sang thought-provoking songs in honour of members of the armed forces who have died in the line of duty. A sincere thank you to members of The Royal British Legion, which provides lifelong support for the Armed Forces community,  who attended our school service and recited the Ode of Remembrance. We will remember them. 
  • Family Bonfire Lunch

  • Let's Get Cooking!

    Tue 01 Nov 2016 Tina Brown
    19 Lower School children recently completed a six week cooking club. Over this time the children made scones, pizza, carrot cupcakes and tomato and mascarpone sauce. One week we made over 100 cookies to sell to help our funds. On the last evening we made a 2 course meal; spaghetti Bolognese and knicker bocker glory. Staff and helpers were invited to eat with us. 26 people shared the meal together. It was a lovely event. Most of the children had practised using their skills at home with the recipe they took home every week. A further club will take place in January - this time recipes form around the world.

    Year 6 put on an assembly all about how children can enjoy using the internet safely. They explained the SMART rules to the rest of the children through scenarios and sang an e-safety song.

    *Don’t post any personal information online and think carefully before posting pictures of yourself. 

    *Don’t befriend people you don’t know

    *Don’t meet up with people you’ve met online. 

    *Remember that not everyone online is who they say they are

    *Respect other people’s views. You may not agree with them but this doesn’t mean you need to be rude

    *If you see something online that makes you feel uncomfortable, unsafe or worried tell a teacher, parent or other trusted adult immediately.
