Have a look at this amazing writing that Abita wrote during our English lessons

That Thing

Pacing his cave, the anonymous monstrosity became grumpier as his stomach rumbled and growled at him. His rotting skin barely stretched over his fractured, bony ribcage. His aquamarine eyes glinted in the orange-red sunset as they scanned the cave for something – anything – to eat. He groped, scratched and tore at the vines like a lunatic with the slightest glimpse of hope that something would fall down. Nothing. The deafening silence pierced his eardrums as the fire in his eyes burned yet brighter. What would he do next?

He climbed the vines knowing there must be something up there to eat. His blue eyes faded as grey as titanium. Why wasn’t there at least a beetle on the ground, or a bird in the sky? Obviously they had all gone into hiding as they sensed his presence. As he was a predator to anything, there was barely a scrap to eat. He darted to the oak, then to the willow, then to the ash. Not a soul in sight. His trembling fingers were deft as they pressed him forward, through the clearing. His knobbly knees and elbows stuck out as they pumped up and down.

His voice escaped his mouth in the form of a scream and scratched at everyone’s eardrums. It was more deafening than a fork scraping across a plate. What was he thinking…?

On Thursday morning  we will be visiting Whitgift school to watch a music concert, performed by children who attend the school.  It is a great opportunity to hear live music and a good way to start the Whitgift Primary project which the children will be participating in, on the 20th November (more info to follow).

It is a great way for children to develop more than just academic skills and be recognised for all the extra-curricular activities that they do.  This can include sports clubs, drama clubs, arts and crafts clubs, brownies, scouts, volunteering with the Lily Trust at school, supporting the school with whole community projects and many more.

Congratulations to Yasti  who was awarded a Merit card for always being willing to help both adults and peers with a great attitude.

Well done to all the Cross country runners.  You were amazing and kept going and didn’t stop running.

Congratulations to Amy and Yasti who received our first Privilege cards for last week

Don’t forget to log on to the Class Dojo and see how your child is doing.

Thank you to all the parents who have now made Parent’s Evening appointments.  I look forward to meeting you all.
