Today we said a sad farewell to Miss Holness and Mrs Rea who are moving on to new adventures. Thank you so much for everything you have done for the children of Westcourt School. Everyone will miss you lots! 

Miss Sexton was delighted to give out nearly 70  certificates in assembly for those children who have been in school every day in Terms 1 and 2. That is 100% attendance. Well done to all!  Let's try and keep it up for the whole school year!

In case you haven't seen them, here are the lovely Christmas Hoops that have been hanging in the school hall over the last few weeks of term.

The Term 3 Newsletters for each class are now available to view on the individual class pages in the section for children.

Congratulations to all children who are on accelerated reader. 100% of children reached their term 2 target! This is a huge achievement and has never happened before. All the staff are extremely proud of what you have achieved. Thank you to all parents and carers who have supported their children with their reading, we couldn't do it with out you. Keep reading over the holidays!

 

We all enjoyed looking at more Creative Homework from Key Stage 2 today.  There was work about the Stone Age, Ancient Greece and invented gardens based on 'Tom's Midnight Garden'.  Thank you to all the family members who helped to make these wonderful creations.  Take a closer look at the pictures below.

In assembly today, the children from Year 1 and Year 2 shared their wonderful creative homework.  With work on the local area of Gravesend and the Antarctica, we were treated to some fantastic creations.  Take a look at the pictures!  Well done everyone!

Thank you to all the parents and carers who came and took part in our annual Christmas Card competition.  All the children had a lot of creative fun and making their cards.  We were amazed by the interesting and original ideas that the children had this year.  In assembly this week, the winning entries were shared and celebrated.  Well done everyone - it definitely made everyone feel very Christmassy!

Year 5 had a great afternoon making their clocks as part of their 'Time after Time' topic.  Thank you to all the family members who came in to help!

Year 3 (Egypt Class) have had fun create Stonehenge silhouettes as part of their Stone Age topic.  See more on our class page in the section for children.
