Easter Service in Church
Year 1 and 2 had a huge crowd at their Easter Service on Thursday. Pupils led the service with readings, stories and songs. They sang beautifully and remembered an impressive amount of words to read aloud in front of a packed church. It was a lovely service to bring our community together in celebration. Happy Easter to all of our Hathern families!
Vikings!
Year 5 had a fantastic day exploring Viking life. We looked at Viking fighting and defence; trading for rich and poor Vikings; writing with runes and games (nine man’s morris and kubb).
Year 6 Fundraiser
There was a great turn out at Year 6's fundraiser towards their camping trip. Thank you - we will have more cakes next time. It was a sell out!
Cross Street Gardens
Thank you for all of the generous donations to our school gardens. We now have fruit trees, raspberries, strawberries, blackcurrants, potatoes, onions, beetroot, peas, rhubarb chard and lots of flowers to nurture and grow. We have been moved by the generosity of our community.
Warning Zone
Year 6 visited Warning Zone to find out how to keep themselves safe in lots of real-life situations.
Year 1 Village Walk
Year one really enjoyed getting out and about exploring the human and physical features of the village. We took our clipboard to help us record our comparisons with what we have learnt about Central London on the River Thames.
Exploring refraction in science...
Architecture
Year 5 have been sketch-booking to gather ideas for their art and design unit on architecture.
Air Ambulance - The Big Wear it Yellow
The children have been wearing yellow in support of the Air Ambulance service and made a huge donation of £263. Thank you to Vicky for explaining what the Air Ambulance service does and how it helps so many people.
World Book Day - The Day the Crayons Quit!
What a colourful and creative day! We had a performance from the crayons (staff!), online author lessons, illustrations, crafty sessions and LOTS of reading! Children were surprised before dinner with a story during the secret teacher swap, and they enjoyed reading with pupils in other classes and outside. Lots of children took part in a 'Ready, Steady, Read' sponsored challenge and lots of free books were given away at the end of the school day. The Scholastic Book Fair will be in school next week so we can spend our £1 book tokens if we haven't already.

School Council
Our School Council met with Mrs Scott to discuss how we can make small changes in our school to help solve the big problem of climate change. They had lots of great ideas for saving electricity, recycling, cleaning up our community and travelling in better ways. Watch this space!
