Year 6 have had a fun fortnight celebrating their fundraising. They've had a trip to Whitstable, personalised hoodies made, a disco just for them, and they've enjoyed Dominos pizza for lunch. Well done to year 6 for raising such a lot of money. We wish you every success for your future!

 

As one pupil said in the emotional leavers' assembly:

"Westcourt treats all its pupils with the utmost respect.  We are fortunate to attend this school as it has given us an extra step forward in life."

This morning during assembly the children were able to present their work which they have been doing at home. Well done to everyone who completed this term's homework.

Canada class had the fantastic opportunity to visit Wildwood today. They took part in CSI Wildwood, 'who killed Mr. Bunny?'. This involved a scientific investigation which all the children enjoyed. There were also plenty of animals to see including, bears, wolves and deers. Canada class also enjoyed a talk all about the Bulgarian bears and were able to watch them being fed. 

Canada class were also congratulated on their excellent behaviour during the CSI investigation by the staff at Wildwood.

We were treated to a super-sized family assembly today when Norway AND Italy (Reception) shared their family assembly.  The whole school, and lots of parents too, enjoyed finding out about their learning which included the stories Little Red Hen and Jack and the Beanstalk.  We also found out about their visits to the Forest School and were entertained with a very catchy song about Jack and the Beanstalk.

Australia class presented their assembly today to the school and their parents. They have been working on writing their own alien stories as well as making 3D models out of clay.

Yesterday, Sri Lanka class attended a Safety in Action day. They visited different tents that taught them about safety in different situations, such as, railway safety. Some workshops allowed them to get some hands on experience by putting their fellow peers into the recovery position. The children gained a lot from this experience and enjoyed their day out!

After a wonderful week learning all about Jungle Book, the children shared the work they have produced over the last week, during this morning's assembly. From the work they shared, they seem to have thoroughly enjoyed learning about this week's topic in English and other subjects.
