Eid Enterprise Extravaganza
Eid Enterprise Extravaganza
We are thrilled to share the wonderful news that our Eid Enterprise Fair was a tremendous success, raising just over £350 for our school!
This remarkable achievement would not have been possible without your generous contributions and support. Your participation and enthusiasm truly made the difference.
We are excited to inform you that our students will be taking an active role in deciding how to spend the funds raised. This will not only make the investment more meaningful but also give pupils a sense of responsibility and pride in contributing to their school community.
We look forward to keeping you updated on the students' decisions and the positive impact of your contributions.
Article 14 (freedom of thought, belief and religion) Every child has the right to think and believe what they choose and also to practise their religion, as long as they are
not stopping other people from enjoying their rights. Governments must respect
the rights and responsibilities of parents to guide their child as they grow up.
Local Area Walk
Local Area Walk
This week, as part of their Geography lesson, Year 1 went on a walk around the local area. On the walk, the children were looking out for different human and physical features. Some of the features the children found were: a bus stop, a petrol station, offices, a river, sunshine and wind. They then had the opportunity to sit in Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens and take in the world around them, using their senses.
Sports Day
Sports Day
Today's Sports Day was a resounding success! The cooler weather provided the perfect conditions for our students to shine on the track and field.
A massive thank you goes out to all of our dedicated support staff. Your hard work and commitment made this fantastic event possible, and we are incredibly grateful for your efforts.
Our students put in an incredible performance; their enthusiasm and sportsmanship were truly inspiring. The winners will be announced next week, and certificates and trophies will be presented during a special assembly.
Thank you once again for coming out and supporting your children and for making Sports Day an unforgettable experience for our school.
Oval Sports Festival
Oval Sports Festival
Children at Vauxhall had a fantastic time participating in an inclusive sports day held at the Oval. The day was filled with a variety of engaging activities, including batting, bowling, football, and cricket, ensuring that there was something fun for everyone.
In addition to the sports activities, the children enjoyed the creative fun of face painting, transforming into colourful characters. The excitement didn't stop there; they also had the special opportunity to take photos with Ceasar, the Lion, adding an extra layer of joy and memorable moments to the day.
Overall, it was a wonderful event that brought smiles to the faces of all the children, celebrating both sports and creativity in a supportive and inclusive environment.
Olympic Run
Olympic Run
To celebrate the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, the PE department at Vauxhall Primary School will be motivating the children into following these prestigious games and become inspired by the incredible athletes who take part in them.
As a whole school initiative, we plan for the children to make a virtual run from Vauxhall to Paris. This will involve every pupil running, jogging, or walking 3km - approximately 15 laps of the school playground.
Our hope is that you, your family and friends can support the children and the school by sponsoring them in this endeavour.
All proceeds will go towards providing new PE equipment to maintain our comprehensive curriculum, including two basketball posts for the playground.
Thank you for your support.

The 'WakeUpWednesday' guides empower and equip parents, carers and educators with the confidence and practical skills to be able to have informed and age-appropriate conversations with children about online safety, mental health and well-being, and climate change.
Each week we will post a relevant guide to support our school community's knowledge and understanding of how to keep safe online and new things to be aware of.
This week is an online safety focus on social media platform 'Whatsapp' Please click on the PDF to enlarge it.
