Our aim is to create learners who can reflect, question, wonder, think, connect, be self-aware and be determined. We aim to move towards this by providing opportunities for the children to build knowledge, make meaning and apply understanding. We believe that by doing so we will help children to develop a sense of belonging to and contributing to a better world and ensure that they can think well and feel well.

Year 2 have got the moves!
Year 2 have thoroughly enjoyed this term's Dance lessons in PE. The children have loved making different shapes with their bodies and travelling at different speeds and heights. They choreographed different motifs for a circus-themed routine and learnt a rainforest routine which they performed in unison.
Year 2 PSHE: What is bullying?
This half term, our big question in PSHE was 'What is bullying?' The children learnt what bullying is - a deliberately hurtful behaviour which is repeated more than once - and how it can take be verbal, physical and/ or online. The children were given scenarios to sort which involved either bullying or behaviours that were unkind. They remembered that bullying happens again and again whereas unkind behaviours happen once. They also thought about how to help someone who is being bullied and were reminded that adults are there to help.
Year 1 go wild at the Zoo!
As part of our Science topic "Where do I fit in?", Year 1 spent a glorious day exploring London Zoo last week. We saw so many animals including tigers, komodo dragons, and penguins! We noticed all their different traits and features and learned some new facts about our favourite animals too! Thank you to all the parents and carers that came along to support us.
Camping in Epping Forest!
Year 5 had an amazing evening playing games and toasting marshmallows at the campfire before getting into our pyjamas and getting cosy in our pods. Next stop is breakfast and another fun day of activities!
Year 5 have arrived at The Hive!
What a beautiful day to be camping! Year 5 had a good journey to their campsite and have spent a lovely day pond dipping, building dens and exploring the lifecycle of a pond. They've made their pods nice and cosy and are getting ready for some food and a camp fire. Everyone's looking forward to getting cosy in bed and having a great night's sleep in the woods!
Counting coins in Year 2
We are very excited to be learning all about money in Year 2! We started the topic today exploring the difference between copper and silver coins. We discovered we can use our skip-counting skills to find the total value of a number of coins. We had to pay special attention to each coin to make sure we knew how much each was worth.
We can't wait to learn about pound coins and notes in the lessons to come this week!
Our Eco team
Did you know we have an Eco team at our school?
Our Eco Team is a group of KS2 pupils who are enthusiastic and passionate about protecting the environment and making our school a greener place. We meet fortnightly to share ideas, plan projects, and discuss ways we can improve our school grounds and reduce energy use, amongst other things.
As the Summer term begins, the Eco Team will be busier than ever. We have some exciting projects coming up and are always looking for ways to raise awareness about caring for our planet and get the whole school involved.
Watch this space for our upcoming eco projects!
A shared love of books in Reception.
In Reception, we are passionate about reading for pleasure. The children made the most of the beautiful sunny weather by taking their love of reading outdoors.
They showed their creative side by building their own cosy seating using playground resources and a few cushions and blankets. What a fantastic way to relax with a book.
