W/E: 10/07/2026.

On Monday, we thoroughly enjoyed our trip to the Tower of London. The children had a fantastic time taking part in the Great Fire of London workshop, where they joined in with enthusiasm and learned lots through interactive activities. We also had the opportunity to see the Crown Jewels, which was a real highlight of the day!

Although it was a very hot day, the children were absolutely amazing. They walked to and from the station sensibly, waited patiently in queues and represented the school brilliantly. Their behaviour was exemplary throughout the trip, and we were especially proud when a teacher from another school complimented the children on their excellent behaviour. They should all be incredibly proud of themselves—I certainly am!

On Wednesday, we had to vacate our classroom while the much-needed air conditioning units were installed. Despite moving between different learning spaces for the day, the children adapted brilliantly and continued with their learning without any fuss.

This week has also been Sports Week, and the children have thrown themselves into every activity with enthusiasm and determination. They enjoyed taking part in Kin-Ball, archery, hockey, Clubbercise and, of course, Sports Day on Friday. Despite the very warm weather, they all participated beautifully, showed excellent sportsmanship and encouraged one another throughout the week.

I am incredibly proud of Year 2. They have shown resilience, kindness and enthusiasm in everything they have done this week, and they continue to be wonderful ambassadors for our school.
