Beech Class went on an extra special trip to the Science Museum in London! The children enjoyed exploring the space gallery linked to our topic ‘Infinity and Beyond’ and the interactive area. They also made friends with other children from other schools.

Last week, Valley and Lake class walked down to Purley fire station with our adults, we were careful no to speak to strangers as we know about stranger danger! When we arrive at the fire station, we met the leader called Gareth, he took us to an emergency, a vehicle had been in an accident and there was someone trapped in the car! We watched the firefighters cut the car doors off to get the person out of the car. We also got to touch the fire fighters uniform, it so heavy, we were able to dress our teacher Claire as a fire fighter. Then Gareth took us in a room, where he taught us how to get out of a room safely if you hear the fire alarm. We had a lovely trip and we have learnt a lot about how to keep safe. 

Last week, representitives of our School Council were invited to visit Croydon Town Hall and meet Croydon Mayor Richard Chaterjee. They had a tour of the town hall and were allowed to speak to the Mayor and ask him questions. Well done for representing our school so well!

A group of students from Lake and Valley classes had a great SmiLE Therapy session last week, they to the local cafe to get a hot/cold chocolate ! after many weeks of practice they were able to ask for their drink themselves and have a chat with the cafe owner and pay independently. SmiLE Therapy is a therapy program used to develop social communication skills. This group have done so well! Big thank you to the SALT team for fantastic work.
