SWIMMING SUCCESS
14 May 2012, 12:25 PM
Our Year 5 swimming squad took part in an inaugural swimming fixture against Quainton Hall School, Harrow, this week and performed very well. Team members all took part in individual sprint and relay events using a variety of strokes. Our mixed team of 4 boys and 4 girls swam against the all-boy Quainton Hall team but this did not put our girls off! St Helen's scored 205 points and Quainton Hall scored 185 points. Well done to team members Oyin, Olivia, Reenal, Eloise, Brendan, Daniel, Mahmoud and Julen.
MUSICIANS' CONCERT - INSTRUMENTALISTS
14 May 2012, 12:15 PM
Last night we had a feast of wonderful music from our very talented instrumentalists. There were performances from soloists and from groups of string, woodwind, guitar and brass. It was a real treat to see the result of the children’s hard work. A big thank you is due to our dedicated team of peripatetic music teachers who have trained the pupils so well and to parents for helping children to practise at home. Not only did the children display a very high level of musical ability, but they also showed great maturity in their appreciation of one other. Bravo one and all!
YEAR 5 TRIP TO THE ISLE OF WIGHT
04 May 2012, 02:13 PM
Our Year 5 classes had a wonderful time in the Isle of Wight last week. They stopped off in Portsmouth on the way to visit the Mary Rose exhibition, where they enjoyed dressing up, loading cannon and working out what some of the items found on the Mary Rose were used for.
Once on the Isle of Wight, pupils enjoyed many activities including balance beam, fencing, climbing, team challenges, a mini-olympics, caving, zip-wire and archery! They also played games on the field and indoors and learnt some fun new songs!
As part of their Geography coursework, the children learnt about coastal defences. The weather was wet and windy at times so they saw for themselves the effect of waves and why coastal defences are needed to protect the cliffs!
