Our Reception children had a great time at their Mini Olympics event! Even at such a young age, they all showed great teamwork, turn-taking and sportsmanship. We have some future Olympians amongst the children. Thank you to all the parents/ carers and families for coming along to support the children and cheering them on the sidelines.
After the Poetry Performance, all our parents/ carers and family members were invited to see our school hall transformed into an Art Exhibition! The children showcased a variety of their work in Art and D&T from this academic year, which really showed the high standard of knowledge, skills and progression from each year group using a range of mediums and materials. You can see a full video of the Art Exhibition on our school Instagram page @delta.primaryschool
Once again, we had a tremendous turnout to this half-term’s Poetry Performance, with many parents/ carers and family members coming to watch their children perform their final poetry performance of the academic year. We are incredibly proud of all of our children and the performances have got better and better each half-term! The children were able to recite their poems with such confidence!
Year 2 Mandela and Year 3 Angelou have had an amazing experience visiting Shoeburyness Beach in Essex as part of their learning on UK habitats and biomes. The children enjoyed making sandcastles, playing on the beach and exploring the coastal area.
Our Reception children had a wonderful Teddy Bears Picnic under the tree whilst enjoying the beautiful weather!
Year 1 went on their educational visit to Forty Hall. The children explored the beautiful gardens whilst recognising key features of different trees and leaves to support their Science topic on Plants. The children also got to enjoy seeing the wonderful wildlife in the surrounding grounds and pond.
Once again, children from Year 4, 5 and 6 represented the school and participated in the Connect Trust Netball Tournament hosted by one of other Trust schools - Carterhatch Junior against other schools within the Trust.
Our children continued to follow our school values and showed great sportsmanship. Sadly, the team didn't win any of the netball rounds but were reminded that it is taking part that counts and next time they will continue to demonstrate our value - Resilient and continue to preserve and will aim to overcome and achieve next time.
Delta took part in the TTRockstars London Rocks challenge! We came in 61st place out of 336 schools who took part! Well done to our Top 3 winners who took on the challenge and had the highest scores in school!
Today the hall was transformed into a Year 3 Living History Museum! The children in Year 3 have been working incredibly hard to research and recite key facts about their key significant person in history!
This was truly a one-of-a-kind experience that was thoroughly enjoyed by all the pupils, teachers and parents at Delta. You can see more up-close and wonderful photos and a video of this event on our Instagram page @delta.primaryschool
Today we had a guest speaker from TfL who carried out a free travel safety presentation to our Year 5/6 children. The purpose of the presentation was to raise pupils' confidence in travelling independently and keeping safe as many of them will soon be transitioning to secondary school.
The children were all given their own Zip Oyster card and learnt about ticketing, personal safety advice, journey planning, how to get help and respect for fellow passengers and TfL staff.
A few our Delta children were selected to participate in our first Connect Trust Debating competition hosted by Hazelbury School. The children were competing against other schools within the Trust. Delta did incredibly well and reached the semi-final round. We are very proud of how confident the children used their oracy skills!
Year 4 had an amazing experience visiting The National Portrait Gallery. The children were advancing their drawing and sketching skills by using light and dark tones to create different portraits within the gallery.
