Last term, the Year 3 pupils explored writing to inform in English. This unit of work required of them to write recounts, information texts and instructions. To culminate their learning, the writers transformed into little chefs when they got the opportunity to follow written instructions to bake their own delicious Christmas cookies. It was amazing to see how fun and engaging it was for them to link their learning across the curriculum, which included Mathematics, PSHE, Design and Technology and Science. It was a blast!

The Year 5 pupils were in awe as they travelled back to 16th Century England, in their visit to Hampton Court Palace. The visit provided great enrichment, as well as the opportunity to deepen their understanding of the monarchs of the time. The pupils saw various fascinating paintings and were able to compare their own skills of drawing portraits of King Henry V111 from their own Art lessons. To give a better understanding of how vast the Palace is, the children explored different chambers, and saw King Henry’s actual kitchen. They were able to make comparisons on how people lived during that period to present day. Overall, the trip was a huge success as they reinforced their learning of The Tudors whilst having a blast!

Year 4 had the opportunity to go on a great adventure under the sea! They had the experience of travelling on the tube to Central London. The children visited the Sea Life Centre and saw various different sea life and plants that are found in the ocean habitat. Furthermore, they also experienced seeing Big Ben and the River Thames from up close. This trip en- riched them in their knowledge of living things and their habitats as well as travelling on public transport.

On Tuesday 22nd November, children, parents, guardians and carers across Brookside beamed with pride as we pinned our Junior Leaders for the 2022 to 2023 academic year. Pupils were honoured for their judicious choices, studious characters and continuous efforts within the School by having their respective badges pinned on their blazers by their parents, guardians and carers, making this auspicious event all the more significant! Pupils across the school displayed their talents through singing which had families marvelling at the splendour of the event. Congratulations to Brookside Primary’s Junior Leaders! You have shown great pride in the School’s ethos by adhering to the 6Rs and it is a privilege to have outstanding pupils like you representing our school! We congratulate all our ambassadors, and class monitors, and wish them continued success.

Friday 11th November is recognised as Remembrance Day. This day honours those who served to defend our democratic freedom. Pupils in Key Stage 1 have been learning about Remembrance Day by finger-painting poppies. They also learned about the importance of remembering all the fallen soldiers who have allowed us to live in peace because of their bravery.
