School dinners and Superhero Day

This week has been another busy week! On Tuesday, I spent time in the dining hall with our younger pupils. It was lovely to see them enjoying their school dinner. Since September, all children in Reception, Year 1 and 2 are now able to get a free hot meal every day and it has been great to see so many of our pupils taking up this offer. You can see from the photos below that many of them didn't even stop to smile at the camera as they were so busy enjoying the food. Our lunchtime supervisors and catering staff have done an excellent job at organising the changes we have had to make due to the increased number of children having school dinners.

Great table manners from our Year 1 pupils!

Yummy dessert!

Today was an exciting day as the school suddenly became full of Superheroes. We saw hundreds of Spidermans, Batmans (and girls) and Supermans. It was a fantastic day where we raised money for two very worthy charities. The children's MUFTI money went towards the Shooting Star Chase Charity. This charity has two hospices, one of which is in Guildford, that support children with life-limiting conditions. The staff also had a coffee and cake morning and raised money for Macmillan Cancer Support.

Below are the finalists from each phase who were selected as having the most original Superhero costumes. As you can see, we had some really creative entries. We had 'Bling Girl', 'Army Man', 'Guildford Grove Boy' and 'Super Spanish Girl'.
