Year 3 Visit to Braintree Museum

Bip, Year 3 Last week, we went to Braintree Museum and learnt about rocks and fossils. When we got there we went in and took our coats off.  First we chose a rock and we scratched it and we wrote down what happened.  Then we put the rock in water and wrote down what happened.  Then we put the rock …

Charity begins at home

Mrs Forgeron So have you started your Christmas shopping yet? When I espied our Christmas tree all beautifully lit up in the front playground this morning, I felt that little tingle of Christmas excitement. I know, by now, many of you will know exactly how many sleeps it is until Christmas morning, you may have wrapped every present and perhaps …

Step into my shoes….

Mrs Forgeron The new academic year has got off to a flying start and all the children have settled back in splendidly to their work and routines.  As I mentioned in my letter at the start of term, we extend a warm welcome to all our new families and hope the children are settling in well now. Throughout the summer, …

This month’s theme is trust…

Mrs Forgeron Do you trust me? Do you trust my staff? Do you trust your children? Your neighbours? Your friends? I hope you do. But for what reason? For example, if you were to trust me to fix your car, your trust would be misplaced because I have no idea what happens under the bonnet of a car at all! Making …

Before twitter there was poetry…

Mrs Forgeron Before there was writing, before there was prose and certainly an age before there were such things as “texts”, “tweets” and “status updates,” there was poetry. Last week I felt very privileged to hear our pupils in years 3-6 perform their Burns’ inspired poetry.  They had very little time to draft, craft and rehearse their work but the …

In the not so bleak mid-winter!

Mrs Forgeron I love this time of year when all the anticipation of the Yuletide season starts to simmer and bubble and we can see the children (and the staff!) starting to get excited about Christmas time.   The Heathcote Christmas tree is already taking pride of place in the front playground, lit and decorated and ready for the festivities …

Spooktacular!

Today to support Children in Need we all dressed up in a whole variety of spotty outfits to raise money for this worthwhile cause. The children worked hard at break time icing cakes and adding their coins to Pudsey’s spots as well as posing in the spotty photo booth! Well done to everyone in Robins who worked hard to make this …
