Since the start of the pandemic the amount of ‘self-generated’ abuse imagery has increased dramatically, 77% on the previous year! In 80% of the cases, the victims were 11-13 year old girls in their own homes!**
Last week, our Year 6 pupils were truly ‘unstoppable’ and clearly demonstrated their entrepreneurial skills by running their very own ‘Make your money Grow’ stalls.
It has been a very exciting week in the Science department as the girls welcomed some chicks into the classroom!
Our Choral Captain, Cherise, enjoyed singing with the NYCGB (National Youth Choirs of Great Britain) over the Easter holidays. She has written a report about her fantastic experience:

Year 3 have been working incredibly hard during lockdown and completed lots of fantastic work on Seesaw.
It has been a busy term in Year 4.
It has been wonderful to have the children back in the Science labs. Year 3 girls have been investigating the strength of different magnets and making magnetic games. While Year 4 have been exploring a variety of physical and chemical changes from burning paper to melting ice. Year 5 have been making models of blood and Year 6 have investigated the importance of hand washing, and actually saw the microbial grown on agar plates.
The Nursery children have had a very busy term, as they continued to make good use of their new playground. They have been exploring the musical instruments outdoors and love playing on the climbing frame.
Reception had a busy start to the term learning about ‘Space’! The children enjoyed sharing stories about space; learning about real-life astronauts including Tim Peake and Neil Armstrong and creating their own rockets and space stations either at school or at home. Reception listened to music from ‘The Planet Suite’ by Gustav Holst and drew or painted their own planets.

The teachers in Year 2 have been thrilled to be back in school with the children. They have settled back into their routines and friendships very well and it has been a real joy to see!
Year 5 have been working incredibly hard this term at home and upon their return to school. Both the children and staff were so delighted to be back together in the classroom.
