What a fantastic day we have had celebrating our annual sports day. I was so impressed with everyone’s attitude throughout the afternoon and their growth mind-set when it came to competing in every activity. All of the children should be so proud of themselves for their efforts today, and should be commended for their sportsmanship that they showed.
I hope you all have a fantastic weekend, and enjoy the sunshine.

Year 5 represented the school with pride this week as we visited St Albans Synagogue. We learnt more about the history of the Jewish faith and also had the opportunity to try some kosher food. The children thoroughly enjoyed the honey bread that was offered and many wanted to try and make this at home. So if anyone would like the recipe please do not hesitate to get in touch. Not only this, the children were able to view and touch many of the sources of wisdom from the Jewish faith. It was wonderful to hear the children so animated ...
Firstly, I just wanted to say I hope you had a lovely half term and you had some time to enjoy all the celebrations of the Platinum Jubilee, and to enjoy the little bit of sun that we had.
We have had a great first week settling back into our crazy year 5 routine, and the children have responded really well to all of the work that has been set. We have finally finished our fraction unit in maths and I am so proud of the growth mind-set that they have all displayed when shown challenging problem solving questions. ...
This week has been extremely busy in year 5 with lots of activities keeping us occupied . The children have looked at the artist Monet and his work on Impressionism. We looked into the history of art and how it is now developed into many different varieties. We focussed closely on the ‘Lily pads’ painting, which many of them chose to replicate as their final product. I have been so impressed with their attitudes to learning and the focus and growth mind-set they have shown. We may have a few future artists in year 5!!
We finish the week ...
What can I say! What a fantastic way to round off the week at school, with a mind-blowing performance from every member in year 5. I’m sure you are all as proud as I was sitting there watching them perform with such confidence. They had worked hard to pull of the best performance possible and all the hard work really did pay off. Thank you so much for all of you who took the time to come in and watch it and for your kind words afterwards. All of us in Year 5 really appreachaited it.
I hope you all ...
