BLACKHEATH HALLS ORCHESTRA PERFORM: I AM I SAY

This evening, our Year 4&5 pupils joined the orchestra to perform I Am I Say, a powerful and thought-provoking contemporary piece about climate change by composer and pianist Kate Whitley, who co-founded the Multi-Story Orchestra in Peckham, South London. It was a really powerful performance and a great experience for our children!

Tyres for hire

Like last year, we are encouraging families to ‘hire a tyre’ and grow their own plants over the summer term. We have some donations from the fair if anyone would like to get involved but hasn’t got any plants! It’s free and you simply plant what you want and look after it!

Summer RE so far….

Everyone has had a great term of learning in RE so far with a wide range of faiths and practices being explored. Reception have been learning about Islam, in particular the holy month of Ramadan and the Eid al -Fitr celebrations which mark the end of Ramadan. The children were lucky enough to have a […]

Intergenerational meeting

This afternoon, our school council members went to the Lee Green community centre to meet up with some older residents living locally to find out a bit more about their lives.
