Music assembly

The assembly started off with children from Class JA introducing the school to "Sir Robert," the snake which was designed and created to celebrate the Chinese Lunar "Year of the snake".  Every child in the school has made a contribution to the snake.  

The school then enjoyed a vast range of delightful performances showcasing music at SRH.  We were treated to children having composed their own music and written their own lyrics too. We were able to enjoy piano, guitars, chime bars and recorders.  The singers included several soloists;  year 2 singing their folk songs; some great year 6 opera singers, who had written their own operas and a dance group.   

Well done to all the children taking their first steps and exploring their instruments and to those more accomplished who had the courage to perform in front of the whole school. It was truly wonderful. 

                                            

Online safety

This week Mrs Hall, online safety lead, has visited all the classes to discuss how to stay safe online.  There were three main areas that were focused on with the children:- cyberbullying; private information and passwords;  and sharing photos.  Each year group had a bespoke lesson and it was good to know that many more families appear to have screen restriction times and safety measures in place. 

Please do ask your child about these and if you need any further help around this, please do not hesitate to contact us.  

We also discussed all of the positives that the internet can also be used for. 

A snapshot into lunchtime at SRH!!

Our fabulous play leaders have done a great job setting up the lunchtime activities for the children on the playgrounds. Mr Castell has also set up various tournaments which the children have enjoyed along with netball which Miss Bazley has been leading. The staff run the chess club, maths wizards and homework club (which you can see in the photos) alongside other lunch clubs such as hand chimes, recorders, philosophy, French, book club. 

Volcanic art in MS

Class MS created some amazing 3D models of volcanoes complete with magma, lava and dust clouds. Here are our finished creations in all their volcanic glory. 

Class VW Learning

The children in VW have been engaged in a wide range of activities over the past few weeks.

They have written balanced arguments on the continuation of Trump’s wall between the US and Mexico, learned about the Year of the Snake, been introduced to algebra and unleashed their creativity by sculpting beautiful clay pots with Mrs. Skeggs to represent the layers of the Earth. 

It has been a busy time!
