Hot Chocolate with the Head


As you all know we are constantly striving to improve Clockhouse for your children. 

This year we are all trying our best to go 'Beyond the Possible' in everything to ensure that our school is a fabulous place to be and the children get the best all round experience possible. Each week, the Heads of Year as well as Miss Ward, Mrs Reinecke and Mrs Savidge choose a person (child or adult) who has been seen to do this and then they get to have Hot Chocolate with Mrs Savidge!

This week the following Clockhouse Citizens have been seen to going 'Beyond the Possible':

Nursery - Saleh A for going beyond the possible with his kindness to the other children.
Reception - Halil D (Northern Ireland) for going beyond the possible and learning all his number bonds to 5 and trying hard with his learning.
Year 1 - Nyla R (Italy) for going beyond the possible in her creative arts work and following instructions carefully to create secondary colours.
Year 2 - Riya B (Mexico) for going beyond the possible and making excellent contributions to class discussions.
Year 3 - Joey M (Brazil) for his excellent mental maths during We Are Week. He went beyond the possible.
Year 4 - Andrew S (South Africa) for working really hard and going beyond the possible with his reading and making huge progress.
Year 5 - Jada N (Japan) for her excellent effort in class to go beyond the possible to improve her learning particularly her writing.
Year 6 -  Rachel W (Fiji) for going beyond the possible and applying herself to her learning.  
Greenland - Matas T for exceptional learning in Maths when recognising numbers with tens and ones. He is going beyond the possible.
Miss Ward - Elsie P (China) for going beyond the possible and being so kind and helpful to others around the school.
Mrs Reinecke - Inji U (Uganda) for being resilient during her tests and going beyond the possible to give excellent effort. 
Mrs Savidge - Raya L (Canada) for going beyond the possible to work independently.

Well done to all these children and all the other children who have been seen to going 'Beyond the Possible' this week!

Clockhouse Weekly Wow

Here is last week's Weekly Wow and as usual there were a lot of things to 'wow' about last week.



Time to CELEBRATE - Value Champion Alert!

We are very excited and pleased to share with you that we have more Clockhouse Value Champions of 2023-2024!

A huge congratulations to

Piper P (Fiji)

who has earned the Excellence Champion Award for 2023-2024!

This child has such a talent in drawing and writing, especially in an anime theme. Bravely, she recently submitted some of her work into a competition and surprised herself when she actually won! We never doubted her and are so proud of her excellence! 

George V (New Zealand)

who has earned the Learning Champion Award for 2023-2024!

George has impressed me so much this year with his positive attitude towards his lessons! He listens carefully, asks relevant questions and has grown increasingly more confident in sharing his thoughts and opinions during class discussions. He strives day by day to improve his knowledge and understanding and it wonderful to see how much effort he puts in. 

Layla M and Natalie N (Australia)

who has earned the Nurture Champion Award for 2023-2024!


The girls have both taken part in the HEST workshop this half term and have really started to blossom in the classroom which has been lovely to see. They can see the value in themselves as people and know that they have wonderful qualities which should be shared! They are both now contributing more to class discussions and taking an active role both inside and outside the classroom. I am super proud of how far they have come! 

 

Enxhi O (Australia)

who has earned the Learning Champion Award for 2023-2024!


Enxhi has come such a long way during her time in Year 6 and has really gone beyond the possible to work her hardest in school. She is determined to do well and often won't give up on a task until she has the right answers! This isn't just the case for Maths and English but all areas of her learning. Keep it up Enxhi and remember you are a super star! 

Danilo R (India)

who has earned the Excellence Champion Award for 2023-2024!


This student is incredible role model in every aspect of school life, both inside the classroom and in the playground. He is a fantastic sportsman, always showing respect. He is also incredibly nurturing as he always tries to support his peers and make sure they can achieve their best too. In the classroom, he aspires to great things and always puts in 100% effort. He is thoroughly deserving of an excellence award. 

 

Hashim A (India)

who has earned the Learning Champion Award for 2023-2024!


This student has a thirst for learning and he tries his best in every single lesson. He always listens closely, asks questions and never fails to put his hand up to give his ideas and answers. His commitment to learning is clear and I would like to recognise this with a learning award. 


A huge well done from everyone at Clockhouse - wear your Values Champion Badge with pride!

Year 1 have a great time at the Story Centre

Year 1 thoroughly enjoyed themselves when they visited the Story Centre at Stratford.

It was a real adventure and there was certainly a lot to do and explore. The children's behaviour was also exemplary and they were a credit to themselves and their school. 

Well done Year 1!
