Year 6 visit the Mary Rose

Wed 20 Mar 2019

On Monday 18^th March Year 6 went on an exciting coach trip to Portsmouth to visit the Mary Rose (Henry VIII’s flagship!). The children were able to take part in a workshop where they examined and tried to identify replica artefacts from the ship. They were all very keen to dress up in costumes of the time that showed the difference between the rich and the poor.

We discovered many interesting facts whilst looking around the museum, which contains 40% of the actual ship, and were able to view some original artefacts brought up within the ship from the seabed. We were also very fortunate to be the first school to see the new exhibition about the origins of the crew members on board the ship.

Ed Davey Visit 7.3.19

We were delighted to welcome Sir Ed Davey, MP for Kingston, to our school for World Book Day on 7th March. Ed arrived wearing his dressing gown as part of our whole school Pyjama dress up day and the children were able to guess his favourite children’s book as he visited some of the classes to see the activities taking place for World Book Day.

Ed Davey enjoyed a typical School Lunch (Pizza) with healthy fruit and vegetables with the children as well as joining our ‘Plogolution’ club to collect and recycle litter around our local area.

Staff and our Chair of Governors (Tom Morell) were able to discuss funding concerns for our school following the recent government's budget cuts for schools.
