  • Delta Sleepover

    Published 24/10/24

    Year 5/6 Jemison class had a sleepover in the school. When they had arrived at school, they were all very excited and had packed their sleeping bags, toiletries and a change of clothes.

    The children had a wonderful opportunity to spend time together and participate in team building activities. For dinner, they all enjoyed some pizza, salad and fruit. Followed by an evening of art and craft activities, a scavenger hunt, stargazing in the inflatable dome and hot chocolate and marshmallows before it was time to settle and get ready for bed.

    Finally, the children woke up on Friday morning, cleaned their teeth, got dressed in their uniforms,ready to have breakfast before the rest of the school arrived. The children have thoroughly enjoyed this memorable experience!

    On Friday 18th October, we held our first Multicultural and Worldview Day for this academic year. The school hall was transformed and decorated with flags and colourful bunting. Our Delta children came to school either wearing traditional clothes from their religion or culture or the colours of the flag.

    We started the day by having a guest speaker, Pasteur Stewart from Bush Hill Park Community Church, who presented an assembly on the meaning of giving thanks and harvest time for Christians. Then our Site Manager, Daljeet showed and played the Dohl, an Indian drum used at various celebrations in India and in England. Throughout the day, each class participated in various RE and British Values lessons, which showcased different religions and world-views alongside the children understanding what life is like in multicultural Britain. Finally, each class also participated in Bollywood dance workshop.

    It was a memorable day that was enjoyed by everyone. Thank you to everyone who also bought in £1.00 donation, which will be used to buy more books for the school.

  • Delta Games makers

    Published 07/10/24

    This term, we have introduced Games makers during morning and lunchtime play. Initially, the children in Year 5 and 6 had to write a short account of why they would be suitable for the role models, how they would share our school values in the playground and how they would encourage active play amongst the children in the playground. After, the children were interviewed and were then observed leading active play and games. Then the children who were successful were offered the job.

    So far, our appointed Games makers work on a rota and have been leading by example. They have also been successfully encouraging any classes who are in the playground to play in active team games and activities.
