All Quiet on the Western Front
Just had a walk round school at the start of the afternoon session. It's amazing the contrast between the non-stop running, chasing, tackling, shouting, laughing, dancing and tackling of lunchtime games and the quiet and focused start to lessons two minutes later. See Year 4 above. It's been a…
Lenten Tree Project
Reverend Karsten once again led the morning assembly in school. After continuing the story of Easter, he was joined by Mr Williams and four Year 4 pupils to hammer three symbolic nails into the Lenten Tree as part of a shared community project with the Churches on the Mount.
Flash Bang Tuesday
The Science Bus has arrived! Actually it's not really a bus but it IS crammed full of exciting science experiments and all the children will be visiting it over the next two days as part of our activities for British Science Week. Ask your little professors about it when they get home!
So That Was Monday
This was meant to be a breakfast blog but sometimes things don't work out the way you intended them to....What I CAN say is that it's been a very good start to the working week. The children sounded good in hymn practice (preparing for our Easter Service on 27th March), Year 5 represented the…
Top Table
Top Table - what a great way to end the working week! Today I was joined by seven recent winners of the Star Award for a veritable feast including a choice of red and white wine (blackcurrant juice and water) and a choice of FOUR desserts. It's been a really busy but enjoyable week and there's…
Parents Evenings
It was good to see so many of you at our recent Parents Evenings. I was also pleased to see quite a few mums and dads taking the opportunity to check out our new school website whilst waiting (not too long) for their appointments. If you have any feedback about any aspects of the website then…
Would You Like Salad With That?
Healthy eating just got healthier at St Stephen's. In addition to a choice of nutritional and tasty main courses, children can now choose from our new salad bar (professionally operated by Year 6 pupils).
Lenten Tree Project
Our links with St Stephen's Church, the Churches on the Mount and the wider community continue to grow stronger. Throughout this term, Reverend Karsten has been leading assemblies in school to tell the Easter Story. Each week, children from school place a symbol from the story on the Lenten Tree…
It's All About The Books
A man with a (very large) van has just arrived at school and wheeled in three mobile bookcases containing several hundred books. This can only mean that for the next week or so our BOOK FAIR will be open to children and parents. Why not pop in and see what's on offer after school (3:15 to…
Able &Talented Singing Workshop
The school is alive with the sound of music! Children from eight neighbouring schools joined us today to take part in a singing workshop led by our music teacher, Mr Lee. It' s been a pleasure to welcome them to St Stephen's and they're sounding great.
