Our School Council reps are having a great day at the Houses of Parliament. They have been thinking about the significance of parliament and what happens there – and have been particularly complimented on their impressive questioning skills. One of the questions they were asked was whether it would be good if children ruled the world! Hmmm… what do you think about that one?? Thanks also to Teddy’s Grandad for the biscuits.
We had a great morning yesterday at the grand opening of our Lego Innovation Studio. We were joined by the wonderful Mayor Olu and Clive Efford as well as many governors and friends of the school who came along to hear all about the potential of this amazing resource. Everyone had the chance to design a Lego model, build and programme a robot and even to fly a drone. The faces of the children perfectly capture the excitement, engagement, awe and wonder that the Studio brings.
Miss Evans and members of her team including Mrs Young and Mrs Golding, have started two four-week parent support groups for reading and maths. Staff are able to share strategies and resources which are used in school to support learning and help to close gaps. The groups have been really well attended so far with 12 parents attending on Monday and 7 this morning. We hope they prove helpful.
