The children in Beech class have been looking at themselves carefully in the mirror and then choosing the paint stick colours to match their skin tone, eye colour and hair colour in order to create their very own self portrait. We have displayed these in our classroom and have been learning about how unique and precious we are even though we are all different.

The children in Conker class have been looking for signs of Autumn this week. They went on the field to look for leaves, sticks and acorns. The children were very excited to see lots of squirrels and birds as well. We saw lots of different coloured leaved and one child told us 'leaves go very yellow and fall to the ground in the Autumn.' I asked the children what sound the leaves made when they stepped on them and the children came up with the words scrunchy, crispy and loud. We managed to collect a lot of acorns but decided to make sure there were enough left for the squirrels to eat.

Year 1 and year 2 and a wonderful time at the Little Angel Puppet Theatre on Friday. They watched a production of We're Going on a Bear Hunt and were amazed by the creativity and the wonderful way that the puppets were used to tell the story. Well done to all the children for their excellent behaviour and thank you so much to all our parents and carers who came and helped!

19.9.25 Hola from Year 1!
Year 1 have settled in really well to their new classes. This week, children took on the role of their favourite toy and wrote sentences in character - just like Old Bear. We are so impressed with their independent writing! We also had an exciting start to our Spanish lessons. The children have loved learning simple greetings and introductions and have enthusiastically been practising with staff and friends. Gran trabajo, ninos! Well done, Year 1, for a brilliant week of curiosity and hard work!

Year 4 have had a fantastic week of learning. We have finished our setting narrative writing from our book 'The Whale' and we are so impressed at the lovely vocabulary used by the children. In History, we have been learning all about children in Victorian times and the different jobs they had to do. We have also been learning all about teeth in Science and this week we became biologists and were trying to work which animals were herbivores, omnivores and carnivores by looking at their teeth. The children enjoyed doing this and finding out about lots of different animals!

3.10 .25 Year 5 learn about fire safety
Year 5 had a very exciting visit from the London Fire Brigade. The children learnt all about how to keep themselves safe at home, including the importance of working smoke alarms, keeping cooking areas clear, and avoiding overloaded plug sockets.
They also became ‘fire investigators’, exploring everyday household scenarios and identifying potential fire hazards. The children loved putting on their detective hats and showed great awareness when discussing how to prevent accidents.
We were really impressed by their thoughtful questions and enthusiasm during the session. We hope they have already shared some of their new safety tips with you at home!

Last week, Year 6 went on their first trip of the new school year. We went to the RAF Museum near Colindale to gain a better understanding of The Battle of Britain and the part that the RAF played during World War Two. This was to complement work on WW2 in History. Everyone was very excited to see the planes and imagine them soaring through the skies. We saw so many planes including the legendary Spitfire, Hurricane and Lancaster Bomber! It certainly gave us a better understanding of how the Battle of Britain was won.

Year 5 have been busy launching themselves into space in science, literacy and computing. We have begun to write some amazing narratives about landing on the moon inspired by our book 'When we Walked on the Moon'. In science we have been developing our understanding of our solar system. This included how the moon orbits our home, how many moons other planets have and as well as previous theories of our solar system. In computing we discussed transmission of information from the Mars Rover using binary code. In art we have begun to draw to represent movement and we hope to share some of our developing artwork in the coming weeks.
