St Robert Southwell Catholic Primary

Nazareth Class had a wonderful day at the Sealife centre. We took part in a workshop and had lunch on the beach.

Y3 had a great enrichment day today - they started the day with a visit to Pizza Express, followed by a walk through Chesworth Farm in search of colours, sounds and human and physical features within the environment.

We are ready to celebrate the Good Shepherd Mass today at Worth Abbey.

Holding our wonderful pupils in our thoughts and prayers as we attend our first Bosco Trust INSET day.

As part of the Language Festival this week we were very lucky that teachers and students from The Forest School came and gave us a German taster session for children in Year 5 and 6.

Today was our school Languages Festival. There were over 20 nationalities represented - sharing their language, culture and food with the rest of the school. A big thank you to all of the families and Year 5 and 6 children who ran stalls.

Donations for hampers can be sent in this week.
A reminder of the hamper theme for each class is attached, with some ideas. Thank you for your continued support!

Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow for the workshop.
If you are coming please give me a thumbs up. 👍🏼

On Tuesday, we started our new Summer topic in Kids with Bricks, Castaway to Catastrophe. The children were challenged to build a parrot. They were so proud of their quick builds. Great work everyone!

Thank you for all of your support at the book fair, earlier in the year! 📚

It was a pleasure to come back and run a two day book fair to celebrate World Book Day back in March at . Following their successful event the school will receive £487.81 worth of books courtesy of Usborne. We are still waiting on a Complete Book of Human Book and 10 x Junior Thesaurus, these will be delivered to the school as soon as come back in stock.

If your nursery or school would like to host an event with me feel free to drop me a message as I would love to help you receive free books for your setting.

Thank you for the Smartie tubes returned, so far. Don't forget the final date for returning the tubes is Thursday, for your class to be in with a chance of being the crowned winners of the Smarties Challenge and receive a prize (decided between the class and the class teacher).

Well done to Nazareth who are currently in the lead BUT this could all change by Thursday! 👑

Thank you for your continued support.

Yesterday afternoon, in Y3, was spent testing each other on time followed by passing and receiving the ball with accuracy.

YEAR 6 FAMILIES - Growing Your Teenager.

Following on from the success of last year’s pilot scheme, we are pleased to be able to offer Growing Your Teenager this year to parents of Yr6 students transitioning to either Bohunt, The Forest, The Weald or Tanbridge House School this September 2024.


Will your child be starting in Year 7 in September 2024? If so we would like to invite you to our Growing Your Teenager course.

This is a free course which aims to help parents understand some of the challenges the teenage years present; and provide some useful tips and ideas to help you and your child navigate this difficult time of life.

Sessions will include understanding the teenage brain, self-esteem, online safety and much more.

Happy Easter everyone!

Thank you to Friends for organising a lovely Easter Egg hunt this afternoon and thanks to all the families who came to support the event. It’s beginning to feel a little bit like spring.
