This Week
Maya Day - Children in Year 5 thoroughly enjoyed their history-themed day learning about the Maya civilisation on Tuesday. Bake Sale - Miss Hutson (our mental health leader) and her team raised £106.60 for MIND in the bake sale on Tuesday. Thank you to all those who supported this. Apologies if you were one of the disappointed parents when we ran out!
Egyptian Artistry - One of our children’s grandparents, Judith Wetherall, kindly came in to school during the week to talk about Egyptian art to Year 6. She brought with her a wealth of knowledge and experience as an internationally renowned conservator with expertise in gilding. The children were thrilled to be able to handle authentic materials and even gild their art work in 24 carat gold! Maddie (6F) said ‘Judith was really kind and knowledgeable. I loved using the 24 carat gold and painting with the colours Judith had made herself. My experience was amazing - thank you, Judith!’ Robert reflected that he ‘liked the experience because we got to look at and smell things we hadn’t seen before’.
