Watch Your Heads - King Henry Visits Sierra Bernia!
Year 4 took us all back to Tudor times with a wonderful assembly on the life and times of King Henry VIII.
You remember? Divorced, Beheaded, Died, Divorced, Beheaded, Survived! And that was just his wives! Tough times for a king's wife in those days!
Ahh! I can't watch! This was how to divorce your wife Tudor style!
This was a full production with wonderful costumes and great acting shown by all.
The Hall was filled with parents and friends of the school, who all thoroughly enjoyed the spectacle.
Congratulations to Mrs Sweet and all the Year 4 pupils (plus guests) that made this such a thrilling assembly.

Amazing Assemblies
This week however, the parents took over when Isaac’s mum came in to talk to us about a book she had written. Sophie talked to the children about the meaning of access and about places being accessible, then read her book about wheel chair accessibility.
The children loved the story, which is also written in French, and Sophie’s colourful illustrations and gave her a huge round of applause at the end. Thank you Sophie for coming in and sharing your book with us.
All parents are welcome to join our assemblies held every Friday at 9:20 in the school hall.

Junior School Visit To Terra Natura
The day was full of workshops and guided tours, and the children were brilliantly looked after by the Terra Natura staff for the day. Everyone learned so much about the various animals on show.
It was particularly exciting to be in the aviry with birds flying around the children's heads. This was followed by the bird of prey display were we could see these magnificent creatures up close.
It was a wonderful day out for the children and a great deal was learned about the work of the park. Our sincere thanks go to the staff of Terra Natura who made our day there so informative.
