Recycling
Fri 24 Jun 2022Last week, our School Council and Eco-Warriors were very excited to welcome Mr Simmons from Gravesham Borough Council and Mrs Mills, a parent and local street champion to talk to them about recycling. Mr Simmons explained what happens to our recycling and why it is important to recycle as much as possible. They thought about how they could be Stewards of the Earth by looking after our local environment. They were very grateful to receive some new litter pickers and hoops from Mr Simmons and they can’t wait to put them to good use!

Number Day 2022!
Sat 19 Feb 2022On Friday 4th February, we took part in NSPCC Number Day. As well as learning how the NSPCC works to support children, we all had a fun-filled day exploring numbers in a variety of ways including: investigating “Fibonacci” spirals, playing number-related PE games, challenging each other in “Who Wants to be a Mathionaire” and many more! We have raised a fantastic amount of £657.50 (with payments still being made), which will go towards helping many young people around the UK. It was great to see so many creative costumes around the school.
