IPC Launch – Year 5
IPC Launch – Reception
Somalia enjoyed launching their IPC topic Up, Up
and Away last week with the launch of balloons; it
was so exciting. We hope to get lots of replies and
hope that 1 of our balloons goes as far as Australia.
Miss Ghanima just wants to say a HUGE thank you
to Miss Elise and Ms Lewis for all the extra support
during my time away :)
To launch their new topic ‘The Great, The Bold
and The Brave’ Year 5 became “classical
architects” and built models of ancient Greek and
Roman buildings.

IPC Launch – Year 1 Ghana
Ghana class celebrated St. George's Day to launch their
IPC topic 'Time Travel.' We started the afternoon with
an English picnic, then made dragons after the famous
George and the Dragon story.
Neal Zetter – Poetry Workshops
Year 3 had 2 great sessions with Neal Zetter this
week. We focused on alliteration one day and
Kenning Poems on the other. All the children really
enjoyed the sessions and wrote some great poems!
Lines that stood out were 'Salt sprinkler, mango

masher, coconut cracker' in a Kenning poem about
a chef and 'Flabbergasted Flamingos' in an
alliterative poem about the zoo.
Year 2 Trip – Unicorn Theatre
On Wednesday 22nd April, Barbados and Poland
went to the Unicorn Theatre. We watched a show
called, 'The Velveteen Rabbit'. It was about a toy
rabbit who wanted to be real. We really enjoyed
it especially when they brought a real rabbit onto
the stage. After the show, we had lunch by the
river and played in the park. Mr Ali had lots of
fun hanging upside down!
Free School Meals – Free Check
If you think your child might be eligible for Free
School Meals, there is a free way to check this
online. London Grid for Learning (LGfL) have
created a website (link below), where you put in
your child’s details and find out if they are entitled
to Free School Meals. If they are, this will also
entitle the school to additional government
funding (called the Pupil Premium), which the
school can invest in more staff and resources to
improve our students’ education.
Please click on the link to see if your child is
entitled to Free School Meals - www.fsm.lgfl.net. If
your child is entitled, the school will be informed
directly as well. As a 'thank you' to parents for
making a check, and as an incentive to participate
(even if they believe their child would not be
eligible), LGfL is making available free of charge the
Sophos Anti-Virus software provided to LGfLconnected schools, to protect computers at home
used by pupils.
After School Clubs
After School Clubs will start next week beginning
27th April. Please make you payments for all clubs
by Tuesday 28th April, otherwise your child won’t
be allowed to attend the club. There are still a few
places available in the following Junior Clubs –
Spanish, Drama, Dance and Yoga.
