Congratulations to all the children who entered our science journeys competition! Staff, parents, carers and children were absolutely blown away the quality of all the entries. Children at the school are clearly excited and engaged by the science curriculum, which is wonderful to see. Teachers really struggled to find winners. A special congratulations to those who won prizes, but a huge well done to all the children who took part. Also, a big thank you to our Science Leader Ms Fareeda for organising the competition so well.

Nursery and Reception, along with Years 3 and 4 held art exhibitions featuring the impressive artwork they have been working on this term.

Science Week!
The children at Charles Dickens enjoy an engaging and exciting science curriculum throughout the year, so it came as no surprise that they were looking forward to science week. Our science leader Ms Fareeda introduced the week with a home learning competition based upon the theme of a ‘science journey’. The children were also treated to a science assembly by the ‘Science Boffins’, exploring chemical reactions, air displacement, absorption and materials. A big thank you to Ms Fareeda for organising it all so effectively.
Year 1 visit the RAF Museum
Year 1 have been enjoying learning about the history of aviation this year and completed their module with a trip to the RAF Museum in Colindale, North London. The children explored different types of aircraft, the materials they are made from, and how they fly! Both classes represented their school admirably with superb manners, travelling safely and sensibly on the London Underground. A big thank you to all the parents and carers who gave up their time to volunteer to help on the trip.
Stars of the Week!
Congratulations to our wonderful stars of the week! These are the children who impressed their teachers with their thoughtful writing, their mastery of Maths, or their general dedication to learning. A huge well done to them and our friends of the week too, who showed particular kindness at lunchtime. What will you do to be a star of the week next time around?
