Wardington residents really appreciated the cards the children made - opening the post is one of the activities they can still enjoy, so please continue to think about sending cards to a care home near you

Despite being accused of stockpiling Easter eggs, the Easter bunny still visited us in Pre-Prep on our last day at School for the term!

It’s been a wonderful term here in Pre-Prep. We’ve ’flown away’ to far away places, visited the zoo, made our hair stand on end in the science lab and performed fabulous festive plays. We would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and all good things for 2020.

What a wonderful start to the last week of term we are having. The children wowed their audiences with their Christmas productions. Nursery and Reception told the nativity story in Hey Ewe! Year 1 and 2 were fabulous in Lights, Camel, Action - a 10 from us!

Yesterday, the children got the chance to understand democracy by being part of the Pre-Prep election. All had the opportunity to vote for which picture panels they would like to see in the new-look playground. The space&car themes won, we can’t wait to see them displayed.

The total is in and we raised over £600 for @OpSmileUK as part of our Grow a £2 initiative. It has been wonderful to see the children fully embrace their inner entrepreneur.

Last week, we were delighted to welcome some of our American families who came in to talk to our children about Thanksgiving. They brought with them some yummy treats as well as explaining the traditions and history behind the holiday.

Year 2’s visit to the Upper School Science Lab this morning
literally made their hair stand on end!

Our Reception class were delighted to have their Grandparents visit today. The children gave a short presentation, sharing a song and a story. All children were animatedly asking questions about how childhood and everyday life has changed.

This morning, the Pre-Prep children were delighted to Skype Mr Jones&his family, who moved to Africa at the end of last term. Whilst we sang a Swahili song to them, they showed us the zebras by the car as they stopped on their safari. A great start to the week before Half Term.
