BHS Lunchtime Experiences: A message from our Student Council
At BHS we have lots of great clubs which our students really enjoy so Ms Chung challenged us to create even more! As the student councillors we interviewed our friends and classmates to find out their favourite clubs. We were wondering if any parents would like to help run these clubs? Do not panic! You do not need to be an expert or world champion, just enthusiastic and willing to help. This could be as an one off session or more, it is up to you. Please click on this google form to volunteer. The Student Council will then get in contact with you to organise the club. We will help with all the logistics such as venue, students and resources.
Thank you for any help you can give us.
The Year 3’s worked in groups to build some amazing dens in their classroom and we used the thinking routine mentioned above to explore the parts of their den.
To finish off a wonderful week, the children enjoyed their theatre trip to see Geronimo Stilton!
Homes have been influenced by a variety of factors over time.
