Our little poet met some Charlton legends this afternoon and read out his poem as one of the three competition winners at Sparrows Lane Training Ground. And he wasn’t at all embarrassed by how starstruck superfans Mr Pollard and Michele were! Cool as a cucumber.

Candle’ by the A Star Aces – all music and lyrics by the children. How amazing are they??? (I wonder what Bob Dylan did when he got a little tickle in his throat!) It needs a little more polish but my goodness these children are destined for great things.

Year 6 have been studying landscape artists Odon Czintos and Jorje Cristopulos and using their techniques as inspiration to create their own detailed paintings – and they are so proud of their finished pieces. Wow! What talented children we have.

Reading, writing, thinking, working alone, working together. So much learning going on in school this afternoon.
