Dear Parents and Carers,

Stratford and East London Music Festival

On Tuesday, the Mead choir returned to school with two trophies that they had won at the Stratford and East London Music Festival. The children competed against a number of Independent schools and sang two songs that wowed the judges. The children were delighted and very proud of their achievement. A very special thank you to Mrs Kumszczynska for her hard work in preparing the children for the event and to all of the staff who attended to support. This is a fantastic achievement for our school.

Children's Mental Health Awareness Week at Mead

At Mead we celebrated Children’s Mental Health Awareness Week.

The theme was 'Growing Together' considering how the children have grown and how they can help others to grow.

Lots of activities were carried out by all the children from going home with a smile by telling jokes, creating support balloons, giving thanks in a gratitude jar, writing poems, undercover kindness, positive thinking, mindfulness colouring, well being walks and thinking about things they love doing to make them and others happy.

Here are some of the photos and work for you to see.

Well done children!

Have a great half term break doing things you love doing.

Year 3 & 4 Celebration Assembly

 

Year 3 - Forest School -Week

Year 3 were busy and focused this afternoon as they took on the survival in the forest challenge. They made shelters, built fires (for warmth/protection and cooking purposes), created toilet areas and scavenged for food. They thought of ways to entertain themselves including making music and playing games. We even had a ‘Hello’ sign (shown below), written on the floor to welcome guests to one base. They were pleased to be able to share their creations with their peers and encouraged each other noting what each group had done well. A great afternoon of creativity Year 3.

Well done Year 3!

Year 3 - Trip to the National History Museum

Year 3 - Trip to the National History Museum

Yesterday, Year 3 went on a trip to the National History Museum. It was great. The children were fantastic and had a wonderful time exploring the museum and playing with their friends.

We used public transport to get to the museum. We travelled by train and the tube. When we arrived at the museum we enjoyed a volcanoes and earthquakes workshop where the facilitator talked about what they were, how they were formed and the potential damage they could cause. Children were given the opportunity to volunteer when needed. It was engaging and interactive.

Children were then given the opportunity to explore the museum. They were taken to the earthquakes and volcanoes area where they could experience a real earthquake - in a simulator! They then explored the dinosaur, mammals, creepy crawly and many more areas.

We heard children say;

'That was the best day ever!'

'I'm going to ask if I can come back here'

The children were well behaved and represented our school brilliantly. We are so proud of them all!

Well done Year 3!
