  • Year 5 Natural History Museum Trip

    Published 12/12/24

    This week and last week Year 5 went on our first trip to the Natural History Museum in South Kensington. Here, we looked around the museum but also participated in a computing/ science workshop entitled “ Mission to Mars” . We learnt about how scientists are building and programming Mars Rover robots to take samples from the surface of Mars and communicate their findings to Earth. We built Lego rovers and then programmed them using iPads to make the robots move over the surface of Mars. We then added cameras, satellites and rock samplers and then tested them on a surface similar to Mars. The children were really engaged and represented Elmgrove really well during the workshops.

  • Winter Fair

    Published 06/12/24

    What an incredible afternoon we had at this year’s Winter Fair! The school was buzzing with excitement as families and friends came together to raise funds for the school

    The games stalls were a huge hit, with children and adults alike enjoying the fun and challenges. Congratulations to the prize winners of Guess the Address, Santa Call Back and Elf Hunt. Those elves were a bit trickier to find this year! The inflatables were non-stop all afternoon and our first Silent Disco was also a huge hit!

    The raffle was another highlight, offering fantastic prizes that had everyone desperate to win a prize. A huge thank you to the companies names last week for donating all of these and the Elmgrove staff for contributing towards the hampers. Of course, the food was a treat too—our food truck served up delicious wraps, burgers and chips, while the waffle stall was the perfect indulgence for anyone with a sweet tooth.

    Thanks to your support and generosity, we’re thrilled to announce that the event raised an amazing £4,039.36 in profit! These funds will directly benefit the school and our children.

    Thank you again for making this year’s Winter Fair such a resounding success. There are a few parents we would like to mention and thank for their support leading up to and at the fair; Leona Beckett, Crina Prilogan and Angelica Toma. We need more parental support at these events so please speak to Mrs Long, Mrs Young and Mrs Patel or email psa@elmgrove.harrow.sch.uk if you can support us at future events.

    Surplus Christmas stock, balls and snack items will be available for purchase in the playground on Monday after school.
