On an extremely warm Wednesday evening, our choirs and solo performers certainly did not let the heat get to them! The performances were beautifully moving and very impressive indeed. Well done to all the children who were part of the Infants and Junior choirs and Recorder club. Clearly much practise had gone into preparing for this big moment. A special mention to the solo performers who were Hugo (below), Hayat-Chloe, Emilia and Unai. Really well done everyone! Thanks also to all staff and parents who supported these wonderful children with their practising as this sort of talent doesn't just happen by accident, it takes hard work and dedication.

Also, up until the end of term, we will hopefully have other children who have been taking music lessons in school, or who are music ambassadors, to get the chance to perform recitals during assemblies. It is to be a musical end of the term for sure!

We amazingly have two teams who have now qualified for the National Finals to be held at Oxford University later this month! What an incredible achievement! Credit also must go to our third team too who did themselves proud but didn't quite make it as far as the others.

JLT met this week to discuss a charitable event which they could lead on and carry out for this term. After researching and discussing various different charities, our JLT voted and decided that we would choose to raise money for Cancer Research UK, after finding out that a few members of JLT had had some experience of family members of friends who had sadly had cancer at some stage. 

We then debated as to what would be the best means of raising money - after sharing different ideas, and identifying what the best initiative could be to gain the most profit, we agreed on setting up weekly ice cream stalls. It was raised by Joshua (year 6) that FODS are already selling ice creams for £1 - but these are ice lollies and packet ice creams - so Kieran (Year 5) suggested we sell freshly scooped ice creams into cornets, which everyone in JLT thought was a great idea. So it was decided, that every week until the end of term, different members of the JLT will be running an ice cream stall where children will be able to choose from a selection of ice creams to scoop into cornets, after which they will be able to choose toppings and sauces. The JLT ice cream stand will run every Monday afternoon until the end of term from 3.15pm - 3.30pm outside the school office.

Three teams entered the regional round of the Maths Quiz Club competition this week.
