This morning’s Ramadan recital was the perfect reminder of why this month is so special. Seeing parents come together to celebrate faith, patience and community through poetry and performance was wonderful. As we approach the final days of Ramadan the children were keen to perform the poems they helped to produce and show the fantastic work they have been doing. #soaringtosuccess #watergrovetrust #providingmore #Ramadan

Last week the children in Class 5 enjoyed British Science Week. The children talked about inventions and experiments throughout the week. For our Forest School activity, the children used different materials from the Secret Garden to make a sturdy bird's nest. The children tested how strong their nests were by balancing an egg and walking with it. We also carried out an investigation to see if all flowers have the same amount of petals. The children loved these activities and had lots of fun. #soaringtosuccess #watergrovetrust #providingmore
