National Schools Commissioner Visit to CCJ!

On Friday 24th September, Cheam Common Junior Academy were delighted and incredibly proud to welcome the National School's Commissioner, Dominic Herrington and the Regional School's Commissioner, Claire Burton to take a tour, as led by our Head Boy and Girl, Aarush and Folake, around the school. As part of their visit, our wonderful children led our visitors on an exciting visit to classrooms, where they were able to participate in many of the wonderful lessons being taught.

During the visit, both the National and Regional School Commissioner enjoyed trying out many of our new digital activities as well as exploring the our wider opportunities across the school, including Forest School, Art, Geography and PE. They also had the chance to meet with a group of Year 6 children, who shared their experiences of life not only at Cheam Common Junior but also at LEO Academy too.

Well done to our Head Boy and Head Girl for leading such an exciting visit across our school and for being such fantastic ambassadors!

Goodbye to Mrs Oliveira!

After 5 exceptional years at Cheam Common Junior, we are very sad to say goodbye to Mrs Oliveira. During her time here, Mrs Oliveira has been an invaluable member of the offce team, often going above and beyond to ensure the smooth running of the school and providing care and support for both teachers and children alike.

We would like to take this opportunity to congratulate Mrs Oliveira on her new job role and we wish her well on her exciting new journey.

Year 6 LEO Football Tournament

Kicking off the first of many sporting tournaments with a bang, our Year 6 Boys football team took part in the LEO Sports Tournament last Friday with much success.

Children played schools from both across the LEO Trust, including Brookfield Primary and Cheam Fields Primary, as well schools from outside the borough (Shawley Community Primary School, Epsom), our Year 6 boys displayed wonderful team work and commitment in each of their matches. Reaching the finals, the boys played spectacularly and won 2 - 1!

Congratulations to all the children who took part and a special mention to our team for winning the first LEO Tournament of the year and a special thank you to Cheam Park Farm Academy for hosting!

A Week in Pictures at Cheam Common Junior Academy!

Throughout the week, there has been a buzz of excitement coming from each of are classrooms, due to the extraordinary learning that has been taking place. As we reach the mid-way point of each year groups topics, children have been taking part in an array of practical lessons and activities. In Year 3, children have been testing a range of materials to see which are most and least absorbent. In Year 6, children have been developing and building their very own motorised cars, with moving parts. They have been drawing upon their knowledge of circuitry, to great effect! In Year 5, children have been exploring the various phases of the moon, using cookies to represent each of the eight phases! And finally, Year 4 have been exploring the idea of fair trade looking at which foods would be best to grow and harvest.
