This term, UKS2 have been developing their netball skills. A team of nine pupils had the opportunity to represent the school at a Netball Tournament held at Shiplake College, competing against other schools. It was a fantastic day, and the team performed brilliantly, finishing second in their league. Thanks to Shiplake College for inviting us to take part and providing transport.

Children in Years 1 - 4 were lucky enough to take part in a very hands-on Circus Workshop, thanks to Henley Youth Festival. The children explored different types of forces and discovered how they are used to perform incredible circus tricks. They also learned about the work of legendary scientists Isaac Newton and Galileo Galilei, linking their discoveries to the science behind movement and forces.

Trinity were lucky enough to be given a grant by Henley Youth Festival to be spent on a Poetry workshop. Local poet Coral came into school and helped Year 3 pupils create their own poem. Some of the children have also been offered the opportunity to perform their own collaborative poem about 'Amazing Animals' at a performance at the Kenton Theatre. Thanks to HYF for this wonderful experience.

The children recently took part in a bird drawing competition inspired by the RSPB Big School Birdwatch and hosted by the Learning Means the World team. The challenge was to create art inspired by our feathered friends and to see who could draw or paint the best bird. Eliot in Year 5 was the winner of the KS2 entries. Unfortunately we didn't win the KS1 competition, but the number of entries was phenomenal and Miss Galton really enjoyed seeing so many fantastic pieces of creativity. Well done to everyone who took part!

Greener Henley is Henley’s climate and nature action charity and the Green Futures Award is the first independently-run, local awards programme supporting schools to take climate and nature action. We are delighted to share that our school has been awarded a Bronze certificate for embedding climate and nature action into our everyday learning and operations.  We are very proud to receive this award, as this achievement reflects our school’s commitment to helping create a better, more sustainable future for our children, starting here at home in our local community.

This week, some of our Year 5 pupils visited Arcadia Lodge Care Home. The children worked alongside Rev Sam Brewster to deliver a service to the residents and then spent time talking to them. It was great to see our school vision 'who is my neighbour? being brought to life in our community.
