IMPORTANT DATES JUNE
Year 4 trip to the Museum of London On Thursday 23rd May, the whole of Year 4 were so excited to go to the Museum of London to see the Viking exhibition. Once in the museum, we walked to our workshop which was inside a replica of a Viking house. Everyone thought it was so cool. Richard, our guide, told us 3 stories about King Alfred and Beowulf. Ms Fletcher was the fiercest dragon we have ever seen. After the workshop we were each given an activity sheet to complete in the exhibition. We saw Viking hair combs, axes, coins and broaches among other things. It was a great experience and we learnt so much. By Constance Mullan and Maxinne Magdalena, Class 4B
‘In our school we learn and love, we pray and play, following in the footsteps of Jesus Christ.’
Year 1 Visit to Fulham Palace
In Science this half term the Year 1 classes have been learning about different materials. To further enhance their learning they visited Fulham Palace. They took part in a workshop and had the opportunity to view examples of materials from the pal-ace. ‘I liked Fulham Palace. The best bit was the 200 year old door.’ By Laetitia Magnien, Class 1G

The flight Centre Triathlon
On 19th May 2019, a group of Years 5 and 6 students competed in a triathlon at Marlborough College. We were put in to groups of 4 and were given the challenge of raising a minimum of £200 for the restless development charity (per group). We arrived at Marlborough at roughly midday, signed up and were given our numbers to pin to our t-shirts. After signing up, we brought our bikes and helmets to the transitioning area. We went to change in to our swimming gear ready for the 1st part of the race. The swimming race was a relay of 100m each. We changed again and collected our bikes to do the cyling part of the race. We were each given a chip to wear on our left ankle to time our group. Each person did 1km of cycling. We then had to run 750m each to finish the triathlon. At the end of the race, we ran as a group over the finish line. Once we had passed the finish line we were all given 2 packets of Haribo and a gift bag with a water bottle and a pen. We then ate a delicious picnic lunch and waited to find out our times. After a long and tiring day, we travelled back home.

RAF Glider Competition
A few months ago, Year 5 competed in a glider competition run by the RAF. Our class, 5B, split in to teams of 4 and made gliders out of polystyrene. Our team, Wilf, Arabella, Amelia and Zach chose a unique design for our glider and named it Falcon F7. The next day, in the hall, we all launched our gliders and our team came 2nd out of the whole of Year 5! This meant that we were granted a place in the regional finals. A few weeks later, we travelled by mini-bus to Oxfordshire with the winners from the other class. When we arrived at RAF Benston, we were given 2 hours to make a brand new glider. After that, we tucked in to lunch and got to go in to the RAF’s biggest helicopter. We then returned for the launching of our gliders and are delighted to say that we came 2nd out of 9 teams! A month later, we were informed that we had won a place in the national finals. Teams from all over England met at the RAF Museum in Hendon to compete again. We came in the top 10 out of 17 teams that took part. This was a great experi-ence and an inspiration for the future engineers of the world. By Class 5B Glider Competition Team
Procession in Honour of Our Lady To celebrate that May is the month of Mary, our school held a May Procession in hon-our of Our Lady. The Key Stage 2 children and staff started this annual event by gathering in the school hall to say a decade of the Rosary, led by Fr. Mark. We then processed to the courtyard to join the rest of the school and gather around the May Altar. We joined together in song and prayer to celebrate the special place that Mary, the Mother of Jesus, has in our lives as Catholics. The Head Boy and Head Girl placed a beautiful crown on the statue of Our Lady as Class 6G sang ’Bring Flowers of the Rarest’. Everyone was then invited to present a flower which formed part of a glorious floral tribute laid around the statue of Our Lady in the courtyard.

Westminster Choral Outreach Programme – Year 4 Since the autumn term,
Year 4 has been going to
Westminster Choir School
as we are part of the
Westminster Choral
Outreach Programme that
only happens in Year 4.
We have attended about 4
school trips to Westminster
to practice their songs,
whilst also practising in our music lessons at school. We will finally perform
the songs on 12th June at Westminster Cathedral, in a performance of St
Paul - A Musical, with other schools. Some children will get the opportunity
to read. It’s been an amazing opportunity and we are really looking forward
to singing in the final concert!

Gardening Club
We’ve been having great fun at the after school gardening club learning about birds, butterflies and herbs. This week Maria from Class 1G bought in this beautiful nest crafted carefully by a blackbird family. We also came across this marvellous and unusual Mari-gold specimen. (Did you know you can add the flowers to salads?!) Watch out for chocolate mint and pineapple sage arriving after half term.

Thursday Tennis!
This term Class 5G have been going to play tennis every other Thursday at
the Brook Green tennis courts. When we get to the tennis courts, we do a
really fun warm-up to get all our bodies and muscles ready for the lesson.
Then we do some ball skills with a racket to make sure we have control of
the ball before we play. Once we have finished the warm-up, we get straight
into playing in pairs. The games are really fun and we have already learnt
so much in only half a term.
By Lola Murphy, Class 5G
Science Museum
Year 5 went on a terrific trip to the Science Museum. We went to learn all about space as well as visit the Wonderlab. Whilst we were
there, we saw many different types of rockets including the Apollo 10 and the Skylark. Luckily, we also had time to look at the spacesuits
and learn lots of interesting facts about what it is like to be in space. After this, we went to a very interesting exhibition all about the sun.
Did you know that the sun is 149.6km from Earth?
Following on from our delicious lunch, we went to the
wonderful Wonderlab. My favourite activity was testing
how friction affected different slides (the grass slide was
the slowest and the wooden one was the fastest). This is
one of the best trips I have ever been on and I can’t wait
to go again with my family.
Gaspard Du Vignaud, Class 5G
Eco - Warriors Last half term some children in Key stage 2 had the opportunity to go on an incredible trip to St Paul’s
Girls’ School, where we took part in a workshop led by ‘Green Up Your Act’ Organisation. The chosen
children were able to go because they had designed a product which could help the environment or were
part of Larmenier and Sacred Heart’s Eco-Warrior team. The children walked to St Paul’s Girls’
School (where it was being held) and met some teachers, helpers and instructors. Shortly after, they
went over some dangerous issues that are affecting our world today; river pollution, air pollution and
noise pollution. Then we watched some videos and discussed our thoughts and what we can start to do
to change the way our world is today, e.g. recycle, use less plastic, save more
energy. After that, we got very creative,
we made some eco-fish, made from cork
and recycled juice cartoons – they look
amazing! Next, we made some beautiful
bags to take shopping so we don’t need to
buy plastic ones. It was a great trip and
hopefully we can continue to spread our Eco-Warrior tips to continue to help
the world! By Sophie Dean, Class 5G
Billy No Buzz
Acorn and Willow classes entertained parents, staff and friends with their wonderful Summer Show entitled ‘Billy No Buzz’ on 23rd May
2019. The concert was about Billy, a bee who could not buzz. The other bees were not kind to Billy, but when the dragonflies found out
about this they told the bees that it didn’t matter that Billy was different and all the bees became friends with Billy. The Reception
children sang, danced and acted with great confidence and they looked amazing in their beautifully designed costumes. Special thanks are
extended to the teachers, Miss Dignan and Miss Delea, and the team of support staff who prepared the children so well ahead of the
performance. Also, to Miss Hayes and Mrs. Teverson who worked with the children in learning the repertoire of songs. Finally, a huge thank
you to the children for their hard work and enthusiasm which helped to make the concert such a great success.
