End of Year Summaries

Your child will be coming home today with their End-of-Year Summary, highlighting their progress and achievements over the final term. As this is a summary, please feel free to look back at the detailed mid-year report you received in March to see just how much they have progressed this year.

Want to discuss your child's progress or celebrate their hard work? We invite all families to join us at our annual Celebration of Learning next week (please check the dates and times listed above). Teachers will be on hand to answer any questions you may have. We hope to see you there!

*Year 6 will be coming home with their summary later in the term, once SATS results have been published.

Online Safety Workshop

Following our recent Relationships and Health Education (RHE) consultation, many of you asked for more information and practical support regarding safe parental controls and online safety. With the summer holidays just around the corner, a time when children may want to spend a bit more time on screens, we want to help you feel confident navigating the digital world. Please join us for an Online Safety Workshop next Thursday, 9th July at 8:50 AM in the School Hall. We hope to see you there!

Barbican Visit

On Tuesday, 35 children from Year 4, Year 5 and Year 6 visited the Barbican to see a performance by the National Open Youth Orchestra (NOYO). It was very cool! We enjoyed music that was familiar to us, as well as music that made us want to dance out of our seats. 

Safa 4M: “I liked it because the music was very calm, some of it - then some of it was really loud and people started dancing!”

Maira 5H: “I like everything, especially where we ate our lunch. It was super calm and I also love the music.”

Gymnastics Performance 

A huge congratulations to all of the children who attended our year-long Gymnastics Club! Throughout the year, they have shown fantastic commitment, enthusiasm, and determination while developing their skills and confidence. We were delighted to welcome parents to watch their end-of-year display, where the children proudly showcased everything they had learned. Their impressive routines, teamwork, and confidence were a credit to all of their hard work. Well done to every gymnast, we are so proud of your achievements!

Year 1 and 2 Sports Days

Thanks to all the families who came along to cheer on pupils in our Year 1 and 2 Sports Days! The children did a fantastic job, putting into practice their developing athletics skills, following instructions and supporting each other. Thank you to parents for being such a supportive and sensible audience - it was a lovely morning!
