During the second week of June Belmore got creative once again! This Art Week was very special as it was created in loving memory of Ruth Green, a past staff member who had a passion for art and wanted to celebrate this by awarding those with fantastic artistic skills.
Belmore children had an ice cream treat during lunch for all their hard work across the year and to celebrate Year 2 and Year 6 on completing their SATs.
Reception had a fantastic day dressing up for our topic Pirates. We had a great day of pirate activities such as making pirate hats, decorating pirate biscuits and making pirate fruit punch.
Belmore celebrated their artistic success by attending the Mayor of London Fourth Plinth awards ceremony at City Hall. Ten lucky children from Hedgehog Class, Year 2, who created the winning piece, got to travel to London and receive the award for Hedgehog Class’s artwork named ‘As Proud As a Peacock’.
After playing in the preliminary rounds, Belmore managed to make the semi-finals and made it into the finals against Hayes Park. They played a fantastic game, winning 2-0 and taking home the trophy.
Belmore ended the term with a fantastic display of Easter bonnets.
John McDonnell, the local MP for Hayes and Harlington and also the Shadow Chancellor, came to visit the Year 5 pupils to talk about the Heathrow expansion plans. Mr McDonnell has campaigned tirelessly over many years to stop the expansion of Heathrow, as he feels that not only will this have an enormous effect on the environment, but will also have an impact on the health of the people who live in the surrounding areas. He does however, recognise that many of the children’s parents rely on Heathrow to provide them with jobs.
Children and parents/carers had an afternoon full of entertainment.
Autism is a lifelong developmental disability that affects how people perceive the world and interact with others. As an inclusive school Belmore strives to raise awareness and support children and families that may be impacted by autism.
Reception children had an exciting experience caring for chicken eggs and watching them hatched.
A group of children joined the Mayor of Hillingdon on a walk to help raise money for Charity.
Belmore held an amazing Easter Raffle event with exciting prizes to be won. Our staff kindly donated all Easter Egg Chocolates and each team did a phenomenal job at making beautiful Hampers as prizes for the raffle.
