This year we introduced a new residential trip to The Mill in Dorking. Year 5 pupils enjoyed a range of activties including negotiating low ropes, shelter building, hiking and orienteering, all designed to teach them how to live well together. They capped off their busy first day by roasting marshmallows over a campfire, before settling down for an overnight stay. A great time was had by all!
Great news! Holy Trinity has been awarded a School Games Mark!
The School Games Mark is a Government-led award scheme launched in 2012, facilitated by the Youth Sport Trust to reward and recognise schools’ engagement in School Games. Schools are measured against a national benchmark and is designed to celebrate keeping young people active. We are to have been recognised for our success.
Last night, four of our Year 6 pupils helped to host the private view of this year’s Take One Picture Exhibition at The National Gallery. They had the very daunting job of talking to gallery sponsors, artists, members of the press and other dignitaries about their work. I am so proud of the way they acquitted themselves. Both Ms Bear and I were showered with praise about them by visitors, who said they were polite, personable, confident and knowledable. Well done guys!
This was an incredible honour for our pupils and is testament to the quality of the artwork produced by the school. Holy Trinity was one of only 3 schools selected to host from thousands. We were the only school to have more than one project in the exhibition too. Our current Year 2 pupils also feature in the exhibition, which is open until 11th September 2022. Admission is free.

If you shop in the O2 Centre you may have noticed some colourful artwork in the entrance area completed by our pupils.
Our Jubilee union flag is also currently on display in the window at Lighthouse London (formerly Holy Trinity Church) on Finchley Road.
Our younger pupils had an exciting hands-on encounter with a range of animals today, including giant snails and snakes. Thank you to Zoolab for the fun and informative sessions.
An amazing time was had by all at the school party to celebrate the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. It was great to see so many of you in red, white and bIue and other splendid costumes.
I was bowled over by the generosity of those that contributed to the fantastic buffet. Similarly the standard of competition entries was sky high and made for very hard judging. Well done everybody!
Thank you for making this such a special occasion.
As part of our dance partnership with The Place, students from London Contemporary Dance School gave a performance to some of our pupils. The students choreographed their own pieces to perform and led a Q&A session where they talked about their aspirations, how hard they work and what qualities are needed to be a successful dance student.
Thank you to all the students involved in providing this wonderful opportunity for our pupils.
Reception and Year 1 braved the miserable weather to visit Buckingham Palace and Green Park. Some of the children made crowns to compete with the Crown Jewels!
Today we held the second of our new termly Health & Wellbeing Days and what an action-packed day it was! Thanks to Chrystle from Reggea Aerobics for some fabulous workouts – it was so good to have you back.
Pupils engaged in cooking and nutrition sessions, as well as learning about strategies they can use to regulate emotions and support their mental health.
Reception class went to Camley Street Natural Park yesterday for a spot of pond dipping. The children were amazed by the variety of wild life that they found. Despite the weather, they had a great time!
A massive thank you to the parent helpers. We cannot run trips like this without your support.
