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 2024-2025!

A huge congratulations to

Frankie S (India)

who have earned the Learning Champion Award for 2024-2025!


This student has been a superstar with his learning in Year 5. He has made an incredible amount of progress in his writing since the beginning of the year and both myself and Mr Pye could not be prouder of how well he is doing at the moment. He is an excellent role model for putting in effort into learning and it is certainly paying off. 

Iliza A (Argentina)

who have earned the Learning Champion Award for 2024-2025!


Iliza truly deserves a learning champion award for all of her hard work across all lessons. She approaches learning with determination and when she is faced with something particularly challenging, she will use great resilience to flourish her learning. She is a great role model by always asking questions and sharing her ideas. In particular, she has been working extremely hard in reading where she is able to link her learning to texts effectively. Well done and keep it up! 


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

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 'Channel your Clockhouse Compass' 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 'Channelling their Clockhouse Compass:

Nursery - Maya A for channelling her Clockhouse Compass and acting out and retelling our fairytale - The Little Red Hen.
Reception - Ronnie S (Wales) for channelling his Clockhouse Compass and showing wonderful progress with writing.
Year 1 - Millie L (France) for channelling his Clockhouse Compass by becoming more independent when completing tasks and supporting others when they need help.
Year 2 - Romaine F (USA) for channelling his Clockhouse Compass and working so well in class. He is always focussed and always achieving his task to a great ability.
Year 3 - Freddie W (Argentina) for channelling his Clockhouse Compass and showing his positive attitude and resilience towards reading.
Year 4 - Daisy N (Uganda) for channelling her Clockhouse Compass and always supporting her peers and wanting to show the best she can be.
Year 5 - Isla I (China) for channelling her Clockhouse Compass and always putting 100% effort into her lessons and approaching her learning with a 'can do' attitude. 
Year 6 - Amaan H (New Zealand) for channelling his Clockhouse Compass and being resilient in his Mocks as well as being very helpful in class. 
Greenland - Harry I for channelling his Clockhouse Compass and making an excellent effort in English and working hard to improve the presentation of his writing.  
Miss Ward - Ma'sum K (New Zealand) for channelling his Clockhouse Compass with his amazing effort and use of vocabulary in his writing of a flashback narrative. 
Mrs Reinecke - Lottie R (Peru) for channelling her Clockhouse Compass and making great progress in writing and spelling when working with Mrs Herrera.
Mrs Savidge - Eliza S (Australia) for channelling her Clockhouse Compass and showing her exceptional writing in English. Her narrative based on the The Piano is emotive, well-written and very creative.
