This week, Year 2 have been busy preparing for our VE Day celebrations! In art, the children created colourful bunting, peace doves, and handmade medals. In English, they wrote thoughtful celebration poems, linking to our current poetry unit. Over at Forest School, they enjoyed playing games and roasting marshmallows around the fire — lots of memories made we hope. Year 2 team
A great start to the hockey and football season despite some very wet weather!
Our U10A girls showed real determination at Ardingly before flooding cut the tournament short, while the Colts B Team impressed with resilience and sportsmanship to finish joint winners at Hilden Grange. The 2nd and 3rd Team hockey girls claimed victories against Sevenoaks, and the 1st and 2nd X1 football sides secured wins over Claremont.
At Somerhill, our U11C, U11D and U10C teams all reached the semi-finals, with the U10B side joint winners after a nail-biting final and the U10D team finishing runners up.
An excellent week of teamwork, determination and spirit across all age groups.
