Children in Key Stage One completed scooter safety training sessions. The training sessions included:

- A safety check of children's scooters

- Safe scooter control games

- Pavement etiquette with pedestrians 

- Identifying scootering hazards such as cars reversing from driveways

- Finding a safe place to cross the road and crossing with a scooter. 

The children really enjoyed the sessions and developed some important skills to help them safely use their scooter. 

Tuesday 14th May is International Day in school.

What a lovely visit from the farm Nursery had this week as part of their Farm Topic Hook. Children saw lots of different animals, learnt about their offspring, held some guinea pigs, rabbits and chicks and even had a go at feeding some lambs and a donkey. Nursery children behaved fantastically around the animals and the nursery team were very proud!

It was so wonderful to have so many parent/carers join us for our Year 2 OPAL Playday and experience the fun children can have even during a wet weather. Please do remember to bring waterproof clothing for your child to use it when it is raining. The children can also leave their waterproof gear in their classes.

Our Year 1 parents/carers hugely enjoyed their OPAL playday with their children today! We discussed the importance of play in all weather conditions, play as rights for children and how it benefits all areas of their learning and development. Thank you to all the parents that have attended and for the positive feedback about OPAL.

Some Year 2 children took part in an Olympic festival at Yeading Junior School. They participated in many different activities to develop their coordination, balance and agility. Thank you to South Hillingdon Sports Scheme for organising it.

Year 2 had a very fun and interactive workshop today about road safety. They learnt how to cross the road safely and look out for hazards. Thank you Wizard Theatre!
