Dear Parents,
Just a note to introduce myself as Ivybridge’s new school nurse, and to offer you all a gentle reminder to ensure that your child is registered with a dentist, has their vaccinations up to date, and visits the optician yearly. The summer holidays are a great time to do this! If your child has any health needs please feel free to contact me via the school.
Kind regards,
Jess
School nurse

In Year 2, we recently visited Hounslow Urban Farm after reading ‘The Sheep-Pig’ as our class text. We had a great time and took part in many activities, such as:
-Feeding the animals
-The owl show
-The farm animal show
-Meeting the exotic animals
Everyone had a great time!
On Monday 19th June the choir took part in the annual Hounslow Schools Music Festival, despite the incredible heat they sang their hearts out and knew every word to every song. They received many compliments from staff from other schools and teachers from the music service. We were incredibly proud of their performance on stage and also in acting as such brilliant ambassadors for our school. Many thanks to the parents who came to support their children and enjoy the concert and also to our class teachers and music teachers who have worked so hard with the children. Sana and Mihaela (both in Year 4) have written the following report;
Our Choir Trip to Hammersmith Town Hall
In the Day
First we went on the 267 bus to Hammersmith. Then we walked for at least 5 minutes. Once we arrived we sat patiently for the other schools to come. Unfortunately we had a rehearsal which was 1 hour and 15 minutes long. Surprisingly we found that the rehearsal was much more tiring than the actual concert. At 5pm we walked to a nearby park and had our delicious dinner. We walked back to the hall and when we had put our bags away we lined up on the stage and began to sing.
At the Concert
When our school was called we cheered so our mums and dads could see us. We sang 9 songs altogether. In the beginning we sang 3 songs, after we sang 4 songs. Finally we sang the last 2 songs and headed back home the same way we came to Hammersmith.
As part of our wider learning opportunities some of our pupils have been supporting the local food bank. They spent their time sorting and packing a new delivery, contributing to the local community. All of the pupils involved were excellent ambassadors for our school.
10 children have received the Mayor’s High Achiever Awards, they were presented with these in the council chamber on Friday afternoon.
In Year 5 Shaifulah, Alishaan , Steven, Omar and Beverlyn have all achieved 100% on their Accelerated Reader Quizes – Well done!
Children in Reception and Nursery Classes have started their balance biking lessons and are really enjoying themselves.
