It was wonderful to welcome back a former pupil for work experience in Year 1 this week. The children were inspired by her excellent explanation and modelling of Van Gogh style painting… #engage_enrich_inspire

To complete their learning on Hindu worship, Year 4 welcomed Mrs. Ram in their RE lesson this week. She explained the role worship takes in her life, and answered many of the children’s thoughtful questions. #curiosity #engage_enrich_inspire

An exciting afternoon for Year 6 thanks to Heathrow Young Explorers - a great challenge to work in teams to design and present a new sustainable vehicle for the airport. @HeathrowAirport #creativity #collaboration

A great afternoon for our girls’ cricket team representing @SSPSouthBucks at the Primary Dynamos Bucks County Finals Day. Some exceptional cricket and four wins out of four matches confirmed us as Bucks County Champions! Brilliant effort girls! #community #everychildflourishing

A valuable session of first aid training this week for Year 6 covering the recovery position, CPR, defibrillators, choking, bleeding and anaphylaxis.

There was even time for some kite-flying fun and roly-polies on the hill! Many thanks to all the parent helpers who joined staff to help make the day such a huge success. #NationalFestivalofFieldwork #thankfulness #everychildflourishing (3/3)

The children participated in a wide range of geography-based activities, such as wildlife spotting, map reading, field sketching and geocaching. #engage_enrich_inspire #NationalFestivalofFieldwork (2/3)

We couldn’t be more proud! Mrs Hooper has been crowned winner of the ‘Health and Wellbeing’ category in this evening’s Buckinghamshire Schools Awards. What a wonderful achievement! #thankfulness #community

Year 1 have experienced life as Victorian schoolchildren today and it seems like they enjoyed having no technology for work or play…#everychildflourishing

Facing new challenges in the beautiful sunshine, Year 4 enjoyed a day of adventurous activities. #everychildflourishing

A few more…

Much fun was had in Year 5 today as children created and tested out their ‘Doodlers’ in our DT lesson. #creativity #criticalthinking

Another very warm day for KS2 Sports Day. Well done to all the children who participated and those who came to support as well. Congratulations also to St. Huberts for their overall victory! #everychildflourishing

Year 1 were treated to a visit today from Sarah, who went to our school at its original site opposite the East Common playground. She shared some fascinating memories in response to some really thoughtful questions from our budding historians! #curiosity #thankfulness

Well that was a hot one! Huge congratulations to all the KS1 children for their skill and sportsmanship at today’s KS1 Sports Day; and an equally big thank you to the Year 5s, families and staff for all your support!#everychildflourishing
