A CATCH UP WITH YEAR FIVE 

Here's a look at recent learning in Year Five. The children enjoyed a fantastic historial workshop on child criminals at the National Archives in Kew. Did you know that in Victorian times you could get four days hard labour for stealing a bag of sugar? That's what happened to poor Henry Munday in 1873. He also got a whipping. Our Year Five children were so interested (and pleased) to note how times have changed since then.  Also pictured below are some shots of the children having a debate about the magnificent Benin bronzes in the British Museum. They were considering if these should now be returned to Nigeria, formerly The Kingdom of Benin, which used to be part of the British Empire. 

MOORMEAD PAVILION

️ have toilets including disabled toilets 

️ have community space for hire & general use

️ have a cafe serving delicious food & drink 

️ have storage for sports equipment 

️ be environmental friendly & fit in with the look and feel of our beautiful park

Keeping children safe online

About this Event

Peter will be talking about online safety.  He will specifically address topics to help parents understand the current and emerging risks online and support their children through them.  

You may be aware that a recent report from the Children’s Commissioner found that by age 13, half of children have seen online pornography. Additionally, another national survey, The Pupil Safeguarding Review, found 58% of students had reported feeling unsafe online several times in the past six months; 19% of those students missed school because of feeling unsafe online. 

This is an essential talk for all parents.
