Across science week pupils took part in a range of activities. At lunch times pupils were able to explore Oobleck and see chemical reactions between vinegar and baking soda, and between Coca-Cola and Mentos. On Tuesday, pupils from Year 1 to Year 6 watched Up Up and Away – a science show performed by Mad Science. On Friday, all pupils took part in a range of science tests and experiments based on the theme connections. These included building bridges and testing for strength, making paper planes and testing the distance they can fly, making foil boats, keep an egg safe on a zip line and making catapults.

On Friday 3rd March, we celebrated World Book Day! It was fantastic to see staff and the children from Nursery to Year 6 dressed in their pirate costumes. A huge thank you to all your efforts with the costumes and your continued support with reading at home.

Keep an eye out for further posts detailing some of the fun activities we got up to throughout the day. 

A spectacular performance on The Magna Carta by 5 Sparta. We look forward to 4 Nile's class assembly on Friday 3rd March. 

A huge well done to our Year 3 and Year 4 Girls football team. As a result of their performance at the festival earlier in the year the girls qualified for the Ealing Borough Finals match play. It was a tough day of competition against some very talented teams, but we managed to finish 4^th out of almost 70 schools in Ealing. The team worked incredibly hard together in training and it showed in their performances. A fantastic achievement, one the girls can be very proud of and will hopefully stand them in good stead for competitions next year. Well done team!

School is now closed for the Spring Half Term Break. We look forward to welcoming all of our families back to school on Monday 20th February 2022 at 8:40am.

Mr Patrick has taught our Year 5 children how to drum. The atmosphere in the hall was incredible, the beat and the rhythm definitely got everyone moving! All in all a fantastic assembly. 

This week Teddy enjoyed joining our parents and children at the Reading Cafés. 

Another cold, but beautiful morning at Gifford Primary. 

Please ensure your child is dressed appropriate for the weather. Don't forget to layer up under uniform and bring coats, hats, gloves, scarfs, etc...

Fantastic and very knowledgeable assembly on 'where the wild things are' by 1 Indigo. We look forward to 2 Bleriot's class assembly on Friday 20th January!
