We are very excited and pleased to share with you that we have more Clockhouse Value Champions of 2024-2025!

A huge congratulations to

Amritpal B (Australia)
who have earned the Excellence Champion Award for 2024-2025! 

Amritpal has shown incredible dedication and hard work in his learning, especially during his last  mocks. His commitment to improving his scores has truly paid off, and he has made fantastic progress. Amritpal’s love for learning is evident in the way he always strives to do his best and takes on challenges with a positive attitude. His determination to succeed is commendable, and he is a wonderful role model for others. He truly deserves an excellence badge for his effort and achievement! Keep it up! 

Iris B (India)
who have earned the Learning Champion Award for 2024-2025! 

This student has completely impressed me since Christmas with her effort and determination to make as much progress as she can in her learning. She has regularly been working hard  in school, but more impressively, she has been learning a lot in her own time at home - which is having a huge impact on her learning in school. I wanted to recognise her for the effort she is putting in!

Maria B (Brazil)
who have earned the Excitement Champion Award for 2024-2025!

Since starting Year 3, this child has really come out of their comfort zone when it comes to learning and showing enthusiasm in learning. She continuously shows great excitement in learning, and expresses her interest. She always comes in excited to learn and this attitude radiates within the classroom. I am super proud of you, as are your class. Well Done Maria!


Manat R (Brazil)
who have earned the Excitement Champion Award for 2024-2025!

In all lessons, this child shows real enthusiasm and excitement for learning. She is not afraid to show this to her peers, and encourages her class mates to have interesting conversations about the topic they are learning. In particular, she shows her excitement for learning in R.E, where she shares her own experiences to help others create an image in their head. Her excitement fills the classroom with joy, and certainly makes me happy. I am so proud of you, well done Manat! 


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

Year 4 investigate Biomes

Year 4 have been very busy. 

As part of their theme 'Whacky Weathers and Crazy Climates' they have been researching different Biomes. They used different websites to take 360 tours of different biomes as part of their learning in Geography. 

They certainly found this very interesting!


















Year 6 show off their Carpentry Skills

Year 6 have been very busy developing their woodwork skills as part of their learning in Design and Technology.

They had to draw on their learning from previous years to use the saws and hammers to create wooden squares. This will help us when they make their birdhouses. Keep an eye out for them! 










Year 5 learn about the Phases of the Moon

Year 5 are really enjoying learning about space. 

Part of their learning was all about the different phases of the moon which they did in a very memorable way. Who knew that Oreos could be so useful in the classroom!

Year 5 certainly learnt a lot but also enjoyed a little yummy treat to finish off their learning.
