Year 6 Bowling Trip:
Mon 03 Jul 2023On Thursday 29th June, the Year 6 children were rewarded with a trip to Tenpin Bowling as a treat for their hard work leading up to SATs. The children all had a brilliant day and many even managed to get a strike! A few of the children demonstrated a great talent for the sport, with some managing to score over 100 points - Marghalara, Kalina, Favour, Xavier, Oskar and Rory were especially proud of their huge scores! All children were perfectly behaved and represented Moat House well, with some staff members even commenting on how brilliant their behaviour was. Well done Year 6.

On Tuesday 27th June, they made their way to Go Ape at Coombe Abbey and impressed everyone with their bravery on the high ropes and their impeccable behaviour!

4SG’s Class Assembly:
Mon 26 Jun 2023On Friday 23rd June, 4SG treated us to a wonderful assembly, which showcased lots of their recent class work. Max, Ezekiel, Schako, Imran and Ihab provided us with an excellent dance and swimming demonstration. We also enjoyed an extract of Romeo and Juliet, as well as a whole class song which the children have been using to help them learn the three times tables. We are especially proud of them because they demonstrated excellent independent learning by creating the assembly themselves, with only a little guidance from Mr Gilmour, Mrs Edwards and Miss Morrin.

Carbon Monoxide Assembly
Fri 23 Jun 2023A big thank you to Victoria, Amiya, Alex and Juliette from 5LM, who wrote then presented an assembly on Monday 12th June about the dangers of carbon monoxide. The girls asked if they could lead the assembly after Year 5 were visited by Safety Seymour recently, who explained the dangers of carbon monoxide to Year 5; they thought that everybody should hear about how dangerous it is. It was very informative!
