The end of the academic year has brought about many celebrations of achievements. Reception classes have taken part in a graduation to mark them completing Reception. We are incredibly proud of them and can’t wait to see all that they achieve in Year 1.
Peninsula Reception children have been joined by Ann, a Greenwich School Crossing Patrol Officer. Ann taught us the importance of taking care when crossing the road. We know the hazards to be aware of when near vehicles and we know how to stay safe on our bikes and scooters. Thank you, Ann!
To mark the Wimbledon Tennis Championship, Reception children at Peninsula Campus were incredibly grateful to be joined by coach Rose. Rose taught us how to move into a ‘ready position’, as well as return a ball using a forehand shot. We really enjoyed our session and are confident that there are definitely some future tennis stars amongst us!
Continuing their learning about the local area and minibeasts, our Reception children enjoyed a trip to the Greenwich Ecology Park! They had the experience of listening to, and identifying, different bird calls and even inspected pond life under the microscope. Towards the end of the trip, they had the opportunity to handle different minibeasts. Many students came over their nerves and built up the courage to handle animals such as worms, millipedes and newts!
Some of our Year 4 students had a brilliant time at Platform Cricket’s Inter School Festival at Greenwich Park. Our players showcased their cricketing skills and had a great day playing against students from other Greenwich borough schools. An extra well done to Noah and Timmy who were awarded the title of ‘Most Valuable Players’.
