Today we gave out our Believe, Achieve, Succeed awards to 3 children from each class. These awards are prestigious and given out to those children who have made the most progress during the Autumn term. Well done to everyone!

Year 5 celebrated their new topic with 'Greek Day' yesterday which was a huge success. They started their journey to Ancient Greece by partaking in some of the popular Greek arts. They made beautiful masks, which they then wore to present their Greek myth theatre. After that, they were hungry for a snack, so everyone tried some Greek delicacies including pita bread, tzatziki, feta cheese and yogurt. They ended the day finishing their art projects - Kipling class made Greek Pots and Morpurgo class made Greek Lyres.
The year group had such a wonderful time, thank you to the wonderful Miss Ghedia and Miss Naulls for organising such a wonderful day!  

A huge well done to everyone in Lower School who took part in this year's production! This year, the performance was called 'The Inn Crowd' which told the story of a group of disgruntled animals in a stable  watching the people of Bethlehem celebrate Census Day - Merry Census! They were up in arms and paws when they found out that their owner had let the last little square of space in the barn to a pregnant lady... This is starting to sound familiar...
Well done to the Year 4s who performed their roles beautifully and thank you to the Year 3s for helping with the singing!

What a production! Congratulations to our Year 6s who performed their take on the Cinderella story this week, wowing the audience with not only their singing voices, their wit and their acting talents too! The show received rave reviews from everyone who attended and all agree it’s a shame that Wednesday's performance was the last one!
Thank you to all the Year 5s who came to support our Year 6s with their fantastic singing voices. 

Yesterday, our Year 4 Reading Gladiators competed against other schools in the local area by performing a 10 minute presentation on a book of their choice from the Reading Gladiators programme and took part in a book quiz. All of the schools involved did an amazing job with their performances but there was only one winner...
IT WAS US!

They Our Year 4 footballers attended a football tournament held in High Wycombe. IVJS competed against 16 other schools around Bucks and Berks and did incredibly well eventually winning three of their six games, drawing two and losing just one. Overall IVJS finished 3rd! Well done to all involved!

IVJS were lucky enough to attend a Year 3/4 Tennis Tournament competing against 6 schools in Buckinghamshire. IVJS showed amazing sportsmanship and skill - with a huge well done to Jujhar who won an award!

In preparation for our Harry Potter Evening tomorrow, the whole school is learning to play Quidditch as one of their PE lessons today.

Thank you to all the children and parents who attended our Maths Eggstravaganza this evening! We were so pleased to see so many of you come along to try all things Maths. So many happy children left with an Easter Egg after completing our challenge - it was so egg-citing!
