Year 6 visit the Mary Rose
Wed 20 Mar 2019On Monday 18th 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.

Visit from Sir Ed Davey
Wed 13 Mar 2019Ed 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.

Y5 & 6 BOYS INTO FOOTBALL DISTRICT CUP FINAL
Thu 28 Feb 2019What an incredible afternoon Mr Ford & the Y5 & 6 boys football team had yesterday at Molesey Fc, having progressed through previous rounds they faced a tough Ellingham team in the semi-finals. The settings could not have been better on a fine spring like afternoon, team SJP played some amazing football. The game plan was clear and every player understood their role within the team. Ellingham scored first from a well struck shot the sun appeared to be in goalkeeper Oli's eyes as the ball nestled into the bottom corner, not the start we had hoped for. The boys showed great character to pull a goal back after good link up play from Lucas & Elijah the ball fell to Kamil who hooked it past the Ellingham keeper to level the game. At 1-1 the game was very tense and it look some brilliant intelligent play to break the deadlock. Lucas & Kamil played an excellent give and go and Kamil was on hand to put SJP into the lead. At half time we led 2-1 and the boys came off buzzing, after a quick drink and some final instructions the 2nd half was much the same with SJP playing some great football. The 3rd goal was a stroke of luck as Ricardo took a long throw into the peanlty area where it hit an Ellingham defender and went in to make it 3-1. The boys then defended excellently as a team with solid performances at the back from Rommel & Matthew. A massive achievement to reach the final of the district cup which will now take place on 29th March we will face Corpus Christi in the final.
