Dalek Visit

We had visit from a Dalek on 9th March. Year 1 had chance to meet it and ask some questions. The Dalek was shiny and quite scary but it agreed to answer all the Year 1 questions. Nobody was exterminated.

African dance and djembe drumming workshop

Batafon Arts visited the school on Friday 5th March to deliver a day of workshops of African dance and djembe drumming to all the children in Years 1 and 6. Ali Baba led the drumming sessions at last year’s Proms in the Playground event which we hosted with Castle School, and is also well know to several members of staff for the workshops he delivers regularly in Cambridge and around the country. The day ended with a performance of drumming and dance in front of the whole school.

Wheat Planting

During the Winter Fair (Dec 4th) some hardy gardener joined Mrs. Lawrence to plant some Soissant wheat, kindly donated by a parent, in one of the beds in the school vegetable patch. It had germinated by the time we came back after the Christmas holidays and we hope that we will be able to harvest a crop at the beginning of the autumn term for the whole school to be involved with milling and making bread to share.
