A huge thank you to Mrs Plume and Michele for running the increasingly popular Sewing Club this year. The children have loved every moment and the club has already doubled due to demand. It’s great to see our children developing these fantastic skills.

and in exciting news, one of our entries was awarded a runners up prize! The judges really enjoyed this performance of ‘Carnival Jumbie’ and wrote to the school saying, “Thank you for entering our CLiPPA Shadowing Scheme competition. Congratulations – your Group performing Carnival Jumbie have been selected as runners up! The group will receive a signed certificate for taking part in the Shadowing Scheme.
We received over 120 high quality entries and it was very difficult to select the winners and runners up. The judges particularly liked your group’s entry and we will feature it on our Poetryline website.” Well done Year 4!!

PERFORMANCE POETRY COMPETITION – Year 4 Chimwala recently entered the CLiPPA (Centre for Literacy in Primary Poetry Award) Shadowing Scheme competition. The children had to come up with creative ways to perform some of their favourite poetry.

our Year 4 and Year 5 Steel Pan Bands performed in Greenwich Park at the Bandstand. They were amazing and showed that they are ready to take up the mantle from our Year 6 group. Well done kids! And a special thanks to Claire Wendon for giving them the opportunity.

Aslan had a fantastic day visiting Greenwich. They took a walk to the Thames where they completed a survey about the different types of boats and buildings around the river. They sketched buildings, reflections and the surrounding areas which were brilliant (budding little artists!) Of course they had to go to Greenwich Park where the children explored and played together. They were very lucky the weather held off and they had a lovely day.
