Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.
Along with lots of schools in the county, we enjoyed a day of snow last Wednesday. Classes stopped for an hour as we went out as a whole school together to enjoy the snow - after all, in this part of the country, we only get it every 3 or 4 years! For some of our pupils it was their very first experience of snow. One pupil, whose family has joined us from Nigeria more recently became quite a champion snow-ball thrower.
Whilst some children were enjoying throwing snowballs, others were creating all sorts of amazing sculptures out of the snow. We all had a great time before coming in, getting dry and settling down to our work for the day. I was incredibly proud of our children, they were so thoughtful of others whilst enjoying the fun of the morning, and then settled down incredibly well and worked hard for the remainder of the day. Well done to all!
PE lessons are always a real hit at Bishop Henderson. Following our Real PE scheme, our children learn essential skills such as team work, perseverance, personal challenge alongside the skills needed to enjoy many sporting activities. We are really proud of their excellent attitudes in PE lessons as they grow and display the Sporting Spirits. Please ask your children more about these at home.
We are looking forward to the arrival of a new building in school to replace our beloved Round House. This will be a new space for reading which will be open to the children at break times and lunchtimes, as well as being available for classes to use during the rest of the day. We are so excited but...... what shall we call it?
If you have a great idea, come and find me or Mrs Keen to share your ideas!
