Year 4

On Monday afternoon, Year 4 visited Gravesend Train Station to celebrate the end of our topic 'All Aboard' - innovations of the railway.  While there, we got to ask lots of questions about trains and the station itself and even got the chance to listen to two passing freight trains (both were very loud!).

Safer Internet Day 2023

To celebrate Safer Internet Day 2023, the Year 6 Computing Ambassadors created their own presentations about the importance of Online Safety with a focus on telling an adult about anything they come across that makes them feel uncomfortable or worried. They confidently delivered their presentations to each class within the school. In addition to this, the children completed activities in their classes to learn about the importance of Online Safety, such as creating posters about staying safe when they are online.

NSPCC "Speak out. Stay Safe"



 

Friday's Reception Library visit.

The children thoroughly enjoyed visiting Gravesend library. They had a talk about what a library is, what the card is for, how many books you can borrow, etc. as well as a chance to explore the book areas.

Parents and children shared books and found so many different types of books to explore.
At the end the children were treated to a special story time.
