PANTASTIC YEAR SIX PRODUCTION
For their swansong Peter Pan performance at St Stephen's our Year Six thespians pulled out all the stops. They sang, danced and acted to perfection, delighting family, children and staff in the performance of their lives. We would like to thank our magnificent Year Six staff team for directing and producing such a wonderful show. Thank you to the parents who helped provide some amazing costumes, but most of all to our Year Six children. You were amazing and we are so proud of you.
FIVE A-SIDE FOOTBALL GLORY FOR YEAR FIVE BOYS
On Saturday a group of our Year Five boys took to the park to compete in the Marble Hill Cup five-a-side. They only went and won their section, with a 3-0 score in the final. Well done to Seb, Alex, Albert, George, Jake and Henry. The boys played so well on an extremely hot day. Congratulations lads! A lovely way to end the season!
WATER SAFETY ADVICE FROM THE RNLI
A huge thank you to the RNLI who came in to give some assemblies on water safety. As we live in such close proximity to the Thames it was so useful for our children to find out what to do if they get into difficulties in the water. Many thanks
