Today was the second Business Enterprise Day for our Year 7 pupils and they are fizzing with ideas and enthusiasm. They have been cooking in The Hub - making chutney and mincemeat while in the Art Room, they were sewing and printing. In DT, they have been making oak nightlight holders and finishing oak chopping boards.
Coco decided to make scrunchies from outgrown school skirts and she will be taking orders ahead of the group`s outing to @arundel_farmers_market on Saturday 16th November and their stand at our Parents` Association Christmas Market on Saturday 23rd November. Do come and support them. They will be raising money for @ruthstraussfoundation and hope to beat the total raised by last year`s group.

There was great excitement in Year 3 when they spent time looking at mummification – finishing with the mummy wrap challenge! The children had a great time wrapping each other up in loo rolls and bursting out of the wrappings! They were given points for neatness and team work and the winning team was Killian, Okie and Clara.

A group from Years 5 and 6 pupils have been learning about Greek Theatre in their Enrichment lesson and today, in the final Assembly before half term they gave a rehearsed reading to the rest of the prep.
With an introduction from the music of Queen’s ‘Killer Queen’ they told the story, in metered verse composed by Magistra, of the first in the Oresteian Trilogy, the Agamemnon.
A gory story, there are two deaths, a queen taking revenge upon her husband for the sacrifice of their daughter.
In the next half term we look forward to learning some lines and weaving in some music and movement in the true spirit of Greek theatre.
There’s more to come!
