Foxes, Trolls and Fables

A group of children working with Miss Enoch read:
- Aesop's Fables
- Kipling's Just So Stories
- stories about trolls
- How the Whale Became & Other Stories by Ted Hughes

Then they drew and wrote to make this frieze:

Assembly

SATs are over! Year 6 have worked so hard, we are very proud of them.

Some amazing work was shown this week. Year Three (who are still in the Roman era) have been writing travel advertisements - anyone for a tour of the ampitheatre?

Year Four are with the Tudors. This week, they've been painting self-portraits. Here are Nell & Honey as Tudor Queens:



Year Five have been writing stories based on Kensuke's Kingdom.


Year Six have been making nets of some unusual shapes. The school were shown the nets as a flat sheet of paper and then as a three-dimensional shape.



Our two tennis teams aced the Havering tournament; the Borough final was fought out between UJS-A & UJS-B.

The competition between Houses is heating up. Two houses have broken through the 1K mark, with the others not far behind. Who will win the cup this year?

All children were reminded of the playground and field rules, and how to play safely and sensibly.

Well Done to Year 6

Well done to all of our Year 6 children who have now finished their SATs. They have all worked extremely hard and should be incredibly proud whatever the outcome - I am sure they have done their absolute best.


Thank you to all the staff, too, for their efforts preparing our current Year 6 for the next stage in their education and especially to our Year 6 team who have supported the children in their final year.
