Dee from St Francis Hospice

St Peter's House invited Dee from St Francis Hospice to talk to the children about all the wonderful work the Hospice does for people and families suffering with cancer. Dee explained all the support which the Hospice offers and how they help families deal with difficult and sad situations.

St Peter's House have organised a fundraising day on Friday 18th June. They have asked all the children to dress in non-school uniform. As a way of celebrating the Football World Cup, the children are allowed to dress in the colours of the team they are supporting. All monies raised will be donated to St Francis Hospice. The children are asked to donated £1.00 towards the supported charity.

Our Hero!

On Friday the 29th I went to Brentwood Cathedral to receive Young Citizenship Award. The award is presented to children who show true courage and determination. The award was presented by Bishop Thomas.

I received this award for pulling my friend, Naran 5 from the icy lake in Valantines Park. From my experience I advise that everyone stays away from lakes and rivers.

I feel very privileged to recive this award, and thank Mrs Brown and all the staff for supporting and nominating me.

Remember anyone in the school could be nominated for this special award next year.

3H's Assembly

On Tuesday 25th May, 3H celebrated their learning in a wonderful assembly to parents and the whole school. They told us all about Healthy Eating and the importance of a balanced diet.

They would also like to thank all the parents and friends who were able to attend their assembly today.

Holy Week Presentations

This week the children have been learning about the Easter Story. Year 3, Year 4, Year 5 and Year 6 all presented parts of the Easter Story to the school. On Tuesday and Wednesday we reflected on the story through the Stations of the Cross which the children created and were shown in the playground.

We all hope you have a happy Easter and a restful Spring holiday.
