This term Hawks (Established in 1981, one of the largest and most successful BMX racing clubs in London) have started delivering BMX lessons across the school.
The children have really enjoyed the lessons and learnt some expert tips and tricks riding their BMX bikes. Below are some pictures of our Year 5 children in action.
Over the half term our playground has been transformed into a very vibrant and exciting space for children to play and develop their skills as well as encourage their social interaction.
This project has been made possible by funding from the Hillingdon Community Trust funded by Heathrow. Hillingdon Community trust is an independent grant making trust. It supports projects in the six southern wards of Hillingdon; Botwell, Heathrow Villages, Pinkwell, Townfield, Yiewsley and West Drayton and currently receives all of its funding from Heathrow Airport Limited.
We successfully placed a bid for £7500 which we combined with our own school fundraising to create this amazing play space for our children.
Many thanks to both HCT and our families. Our children are thrilled about their new playground and have been enjoying their playtimes to the fullest.
Our playground now has a; 12x12 Table Square, Maths Maze, Target Throw, Follow me Dance Routine, Fitness Adventure Trail, Phonics Pond, Four Square (ball game), Hopscotch and Mile of the Day marathon kids.
Nursery children had lots of fun making raspberry flapjacks on Valentine’s Day as part of their Healthy Cooking Week. The treats looked amazing and tasted delicious. During the week the children also learnt about healthy eating and made their very own healthy eating plates.
On Wednesday 13th February the whole school enjoyed Art Day. The focus of the day was British Values. Each year group created their masterpieces around their given British Value.
The whole school from Reception to Year 6 participated in a range of skills from drawing, chalk, painting, collage and 3D letters using coloured moss! Donated kindly by the Heathrow Community Fund.
We saw some amazing art across the school from our talented children. Everyone enjoyed the day and all the children got the chance to show off their creative skills and unique imaginations.
We have been very busy this week learning about the importance of E-Safety.
The whole school have learnt about how to keep themselves safe on-line, by having a specific E-Safety lesson every day.
Our Year 6 and some of Year 5 children enjoyed an E-Safety and Tolerance workshop from ‘Just Enough’. They learnt about E-Safety through engaging role play and how important it is to use your voice when it comes to keeping safe.
During the week we also invited parent/carers into school to talk about E-Safety and how to keep children safe on-line. Thank you to all the parents that attended. If you were unable to attend please click on the link below for the E-safety presentation.
We finished of the week with the Head and Deputy Boys and Girls delivering a fantastic E-Safety assembly to the whole school.
