Science Week
Mon 16 Mar 2026We started the week with an assembly from Miss Ovenden introducing Science Week. This year’s theme is all about Curiosity and Miss Ovenden spoke about the ways scientists are curious about the world around them. On Tuesday, Miss Gransden and the Pupil Executive Team took an assembly all about Responsibility and spoke to the children about being responsible by reading them the story ‘Owl Babies’.
There have been a lot of exciting Science experiments taking place all week and it was lovely to see so many parents and carers spending time experimenting with their children. Thank you for taking the time to share in this experience; it is really great when we all come together as a school community.

The Last Days of Pompeii: The Immersive Exhibition
Mon 23 Feb 2026Year 4 have had an amazing final week of term! As part of their Romans topic, they visited The Last Days of Pompeii: The Immersive Exhibition in London, where they stepped back in time to experience life in Roman Pompeii. The children were especially excited by the virtual reality experience and the incredible 360° immersive room, which brought the dramatic eruption of Mount Vesuvius to life all around them. To round off their learning, the children also designed and made their own Roman shields, proudly showcasing everything they have discovered about the Roman army. What a fantastic way to finish the term!
