Today we celebrated the 80th anniversary of VE Day and the whole school was decked out in bunting and displays to mark the occasion. The children took part in the VE 80 Great Big Live Assembly, observed 2 minutes' silence and completed activities in class to commemorate VE Day and the sacrifices made during World War 2.
Our children in Reception have been enjoying the sunshine this week during their outside activity time.
In Year 1 we use counting frames called Rekenreks to help our understanding of early place value and number sense.
We had an amazing time on our recent trip to the National Gallery!

As many of our school community celebrate Eid, the children came to school dressed in their Eid/Party clothes alongside others from other religious backgrounds and beliefs. There was a special whole-school assembly followed by an afternoon of arts and craft activities and celebrations in each classroom.
Another outstanding performance by our talented school choirs. The children sang beautifully and the event was well attended by friends and family.

Well done to all the staff for their brilliant World Book Day costumes!
Happy World Book Day! Wonderful to see so many children dressed as their favourite book characters.
Thunberg have been excited to start using our edible garden. We are growing runner beans. We put the seeds in a seed tray and left them in the classroom, where it is nice and warm. They have started to grow really well. We are excited to put them in the edible garden when it gets a little warmer and taste the beans we have grown!
Our local Firefighters visited our school today and explained their roles and responsibilities and key information about fire safety. The children in Nursery and Reception were also thrilled to be able to have a go at using the fire hose, and sit in the fire engine too!
Today is Safer Internet Day - the UK’s biggest celebration of online safety. Each year we cover an online issue or theme that speaks about the things young people are seeing and experiencing online. The theme for this year was the issue of scams online, how young people can protect themselves and others, as well as what support is available to them. Children completed a range of activities throughout the day, and even took part in a BBC live lesson. Parents and carers were also invited to a drop-in session to discuss keeping children safer online.
