I can’t believe we’ve reached the end of Summer term 1. A busy final week of term – Y1&2 performed with gusto in their performance this week; Y3, 4 & Cezanne class delivered a brilliant violin recital, showing great progress this year; clubs have continued, Y6 Girls’ footballers had a great match with Michael Faraday; swimming lessons continue to be enjoyed by all; Groundworks delivered Mental Health/Wellbeing assemblies to Y5&6; Reception had a super trip to the Horniman museum; Y6 engaged with ‘Fix-a-Bike’ workshops in school; Y5 attended a citizenship trip with their ‘Mini-Police’ project yesterday and Nursery - Y2 children have enjoyed a performance delivered by Booster Cushion theatre.

Our Collective Worship theme has continued to be based around the lead up to Pentecost, The Holy Spirit, and events following Easter.

Below our full newsletter together with our diary date reminder sheet and flyers for half term activities from Millwall and Xavier Leopold.
