Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.

• School Street

  Tue 07 May 2019

  As you will have noticed, our School Street is up and running! It is the first in Westminster and it is great to have less traffic at the start and end of the school day. The road is still open to cyclists, so make sure you look both ways before crossing.

  Councillors Tim Mitchell and Iain Bott came down to see it in action, and we will be having an official opening event very soon!

  

• Prom Praise

  Wed 03 Apr 2019

  On Tuesday 19th March, the choir had a fantastic experience of singing alongside 4000 students from the south-east of the UK. They spent a few months preparing the songs and actions and it was incredible hearing all the voices singing as one.

   

  The event told the story of Moses and the exodus out of Egypt through music by the All Souls Orchestra as well as dance and acting. All the students thoroughly enjoyed it and the adults even got a tad teary during Amazing Grace!

   

  

• Comic Relief

  Fri 22 Mar 2019

  We had a great time last week raising money for Comic Relief! The cake sale was a great success – thank you to everyone who donated or bought cakes. We have some very talented bakers in school! The children loved taking part in the danceathon – it was great fun! We raised over £300, so thank you all very much for your generosity.

  Year 6 visited the Wallace Collection and took part in a workshop about circles. They looked at shields and identified different types of angles that they could see. They then designed and made their own circular shield using what they had learnt.

  Thank you to everyone for dressing up in their pyjamas for World Book Day. We had a very difficult job choosing the winners, but here they are with their prizes!

  

• Book Week

  Fri 08 Mar 2019

  We have loved celebrating all things book-related this week! We have been welcoming a Mystery Reader into each class each day; stopping whatever we were doing and grabbing a book for ‘Drop Everything and Read’; swapping our World Book Day vouchers for a free book at Daunt bookshop; sharing books with our parents on Thursday afternoon and wearing our pyjamas to school! It really has been a fantastic week.

   

  A special thank you goes to Mr Knight for organising it all, and to the parents and carers who have supported us by sharing stories, customising pyjamas and most importantly, inspiring a love of reading in our children.

  

• Year 2 Florence Nightingale Day

  Mon 04 Mar 2019
  To celebrate the end of their History topic, Year 2 had a Florence Nightingale Day.The children dressed up as doctors, nurses or soldiers. Over the course of the morning the children found out what it was like in Turkey during the Crimean war; learnt about first aid from Florence Nightingale (also known as Mrs Kennedy!); made a Royal Red Cross (which Florence Nightingale received from Queen Victoria) and
  designed poster to recruit nurses and doctors.

  

• Maths Week

  Sat 09 Feb 2019

  We celebrated Maths week during the week beginning 28th January. The theme was ‘Money’ and children in the Foundation Stage enjoyed role playing in their own supermarket! In KS1 and KS2, children solved a range of problems involving money. Children in KS2 also took part in times table competitions: the winners were celebrated in assembly.

  

• St Paul’s Cathedral

  Mon 28 Jan 2019

  On Friday 25th January, some of the Faith Council attended a special thanksgiving service at St Paul’s Cathedral, organised by the LDBS. The service was attended by schools from the Diocese of London, who came together to give thanks for the work that schools do. We were really excited to hear from Bishop Sarah, the Bishop of London, who answered some of the children’s questions. It was a wonderful afternoon.
