Year 5 Sustainability Walk ♻️🌍 Last week, Year 5 explored Whitstable as environmental scientists, carrying out a litter survey and helping to keep our local area tidy with a litter pick. They also looked for signs of sustainability, spotting recycling bins, electric vehicle charging points and other eco-friendly features. The data they collected will now be used in class to investigate how we can all help protect our environment. Well done, Year 5!
We had some amazing entries in the Wildlife Photography Competition, and judging them was incredibly difficult. However, a huge well done to everyone who entered and congratulations to our Winner Oliver and our two runner-ups Leo and Oskar.
The girls’ A team returned to Whitstable Juniors on Tuesday afternoon for the final of the girls’ league competition.
In a tight and cagey contest, it was clear that neither side wanted to give their opponents an opportunity. The breakthrough finally came midway through the second half when Drew picked out Eliza with a crisp pass, and Eliza finished in style to give the girls a fully deserved 1 - 0 victory.
A huge well done to the entire team! You have been fantastic all season, showing great commitment, teamwork and determination, and you thoroughly deserve your trophy.
Well done to the Year 3 & 4 football team who represented the school brilliantly at the Herne Bay High Football Tournament. The team won two matches and narrowly lost their other two, just missing out on a place in the semi-finals. Their excellent teamwork and sportsmanship were a credit to the school.
A brilliant final morning to round off a fantastic residential. From exciting challenges and overcoming fears to supporting one another, this trip has been full of laughter and adventure.

Lovely feedback from one of our parents...
"Thank you to all the teachers who went on the Residential and helped make it a success. My daughter had a wonderful time. We are both very happy with it.
Fully aware the teachers who went must have been sleepless and gave up their own personal time to do this so thank you very much. Thank you for looking after the children so well.
It is an excellent experience for the kids. If any parents next year are worried like I was, I would be happy to reassure them.
I can also now see the value of them not having their phones even though it was hard not to be able to contact her."
What a day! Another busy, fun-packed day filled with exciting activities, great moments and plenty of smiles.

Year 6 have had a great first day. Despite the drizzle, what a fantastic start to the trip. The children showed real courage as they climbed the 'Leap of Faith' to then jump off the platform. They also took part in an archery session, showing determination and focus, with some managing to hit the bullseye. The evening was rounded off with teamwork activities. Let's hope for a good night's sleep, ready for another exciting day tomorrow!
The Endowed netball team were invited to compete in the High 5 Netball Tournament at Queen Elizabeth Grammar School. The team came top of their group, winning all of their matches to secure a place in the semi-finals. They continued to play brilliantly but were unfortunately defeated 2–1 by Hernehill.
Despite the loss, the team were delighted to secure 3rd place medals while competing against some excellent primary schools. They also received amazing compliments on how well they played and represented the school superbly throughout the tournament. Congratulations - what a fantastic achievement!
In torrential rain, Year 6 bravely took part in the sponsored 6K Walking for Water to raise funds to help make clean water accessible for everyone, everywhere. Despite the weather, the children showed great determination to raise funds for those women and girls around the world who walk those distances every day to collect the water they need to survive.
A huge well done to our amazing Year 6 pupils for completing their SATs this week! 
We are so proud of their resilience and determination. Y6s were especially excited today to receive their leavers hoodies - a special reminder of all the memories and friendships made during their time with us.
Our Fun Friday was extra wild this week as children celebrated Sir David Attenborough’s 100th birthday by dressing up as explorers, rocking animal prints and coming to class as all sorts of amazing animals! It was a wonderful way to celebrate his incredible contribution to the natural world and encourage a love of wildlife and conservation. To view more pictures please click on the below link:
