Dear Beckenham School<\/u><\/u><\/i><\/span><\/div>
I just had to contact you and say how marvellous I thought your Stage<\/span> Challenge<\/span> performance was last Thursday night at Horncastle Arena. <\/u>I was there supporting Cobham Intermediate but your J Rock performance was stunning! It brought me to tears watching your journey. It was very cleverly done and entertaining and just lovely.<\/i><\/span><\/div>
<\/u><\/i><\/span><\/div>
Congratulations to all involved.<\/u><\/u><\/i><\/span><\/div>

Home Learning:<\/span><\/h3>New maths home learning was sent home on Tuesday. This is due next Friday, June 9th. There were a number of children who did not hand in home learning last Friday. Please check to see that your child is back on track with managing their home learning.<\/span>

<\/span>

Leadership:<\/span><\/h3>Congratulations to the following students who were presented with leadership awards on Tuesday.<\/span>
Bronze: Jordan T<\/span>
Silver: Joe, Fergus, Caleb, Vita, Saraya, Mitchell and Lennox<\/span>
Gold: Jordan H and Amelia Ca. <\/span>
A special well done to our gold recipients, who will be re-presented with their awards at our Showcase evening on the last Thursday of term. <\/span><\/div>

<\/span><\/div>

Writing:<\/span><\/span><\/h3>On Monday, we welcomed Shay Hooray to our hub to share his experience with setting world records, in particular the world record for the most rubber bands on one's face! Over the next fortnight the children will be writing a story about a world record attempt. The idea from this writing topic came from a student suggestion in our end of term survey. It would be great if you could chat with your child about the record they have chosen to write about. 'Great writing floats on a sea of talk'. <\/i><\/span><\/span>

Our teams were blessed with another fine day last Friday afternoon for Winter Sport. The Beckenham Red netball team played a close game against Aidanfield, losing their game by just one point.
