Lat week all the children participated in a belonging project #youbelong. We wanted everyone to feel proud of who they are, their background and their interests. It was part of our commitment to Hertfordshire’s Greater Representation project which aimed to address racial inequality and greater inclusion.
We had a brilliant day starting with the children sharing family trees, interviews of family members, food special clothing and lots of wonderful pictures. Each of the children wrote a small story about themselves celebrating how unique and special they are which was then shared with their peers. It was great to see so many parents join us at the very end of the day to visit classrooms. It was truly one of our special days. We hop to continue this in the future.
A big thank you to all the parents and wider family members who got involved and made the children’s experiences that much richer!
Congratulations to the Football A Team who who were runners-up last week at Cranbourne School. The boys were unbeaten until the final where they narrowly lost 0-1 to Rosedale. Excelent performances by all the team.
Well done to the netball squad who played in a tournament at John Warner this week. The squad continues to improve. The A Team won their first match and were very unfortunate not to qualify. Coach Da Silva and Julia continue to improve the children’s skill and knowledge of the game through weekly training.
We have all enjoyed an amazing science week
Nursery-Y4 investigated animals including humans and living things and their habitats. We had a visit from Safari Pete on Wednesday 6th March, who shared a range of animals including a tarantula, feeding snake, meerkat, scorpion, ferret a chameleon and large lizards.
Y6 focused on Evolution and Inheritance and took a trip to the Natural History Museum on Wednesday 6th March

A group of Year 5 & 6 children wrote and recorded a song for our school.
The song is the children’s message to each other about how to agree to our three rights in school: Safe Learn Respect.
The song was kindly recorded by Russel Smithson, a sound supervisor, who kindly donated his time to a very excited group of Year 5 & 6 children!

We are sharing a photo of our new sports kits: football kit, running kit and netball skorts/shorts were purchased partly using money raised from the sale of pre-loved uniform.
We also had a donation from one of our lovely families.
Our teams will be looking smart as they try to win tournaments!
