Krazy Kats.

Today we were all really lucky to have Krazy Kats theatre company come to visit us. They put on a brilliant show telling us 3 different stories. They used puppets, music and sign language to tell us what was happening. Here are some photos of the show.

Anti-bullying week.

Last week we all thought really hard about bullying. Some of us made posters and a short film was produced that was shown in assembly. We also had a theatre company visit and show us a performance of Tom and the Trolls. Finally to show good working together we all danced to the Okey Cokey.

Salt and Pepper.

We have two new arrivals at Samuel Pepys School. There names are Salt and Pepper and they are rabbits. They live in a hutch in our courtyard and are sometimes allowed to run around the whole courtyard to get some exercise. When they are more used to be handled students with be able to groom them and stroke them.

Here are a few photos.

Jessie’s Music Fund.

Last week we were luckily enough to have a couple of muscians visit us in school. They were in for several days and worked with students in groups and individually. On the last day we held a concert and invited parents. We put all our performances together and had a great time.

Here are some photos of our workshops.

Jubilee garden Party

On Friday 1st June we had a Jubilee garden party. The whole school had a party in the gym with lots of food and live music, which was performed by different classes following a workshop in the morning. Parents came along too and at the end over 250 ballons fell from a balloon net. Everyone had a lovely time! 

Joseph visits from Gambia.

Last week we had a special visitor all the way from Jofi preparatory school in the Gambia. His name was Joseph and he wanted to find out more about our school. He spent several days with us. Here are a few photos from his visit.

Samaritans Purse.

Key Stage 3 all joined together and made up some shoe box gifts to send to Children in poor countires. They collected from staff, parents and students soft toys, stationary, gloves, hats, sweets, dolls, cars and lots more and then put them in shoes boxes covered in Christmas Wrapping paper ready to send.

The students really enjoyed putting the boxes together and we are sure the children recieving them will have  great pleasure with their contents.
