Battle Abbey School 1912 - 2012 100 Years of Education, 1000 Years of History Nursery News 6th July 2012 School Snapshot! Prep School Leavers Disco Pictures! How quickly this year has flown! It only seems like yesterday that our Oaks joined us as tiny two and three years olds and are now ready for their next steps in their educational journey at their respective Reception classes. We wish them all well and hope that they have a great time at ‘big school’. To the children’s great excitement the day of our end of term party finally arrived and they have all enjoyed having their faces painted, bouncing on the enormous bouncy castle and hiding in the ball pen. It was great to see the all the Nursery children together for a final time and we hope that the friendships that have developed over their time with us continue and that the contact list of parents will help you keep in touch with each other. Holiday club is running for the next two weeks and there are still a few places; please speak to Miss Lee or Mrs Rapley to book your child’s sessions if you have not already done so. If your child is attending holiday club mornings or full days, please remember to bring along a healthy packed lunch for them. Nursery returns for the Autumn term on Monday 3rd September and we wish you all a very happy and relaxing Summer holiday. The Nursery Team
Battle Abbey School 1912 - 2012 100 Years of Education, 1000 Years of History The alternative Battle of Hastings Teddy Bear Picnic 6th July 2012 Amid the walls of the Secret Garden on Wednesday, 39 year tens gathered to enjoy an immense feast and plenty of fun and laughter. There were the ‘onesies’, the ‘binbags’ and the ‘rabid rabbits’. The battle commenced! First, there was the raising of the banner, where Mr Payton expressed his joy for the ‘Babygrow’ Banner of the Onesies. Then the “battleers” had to compete to make the highest teddy bear mountain. This was followed by “lob the teddy”, where little compassion was shown by some owners, sacrificing lifelong friends for success- although some accepted defeat, and decided not to throw their teddybears. So, arriving at the crux of the competition: the teddybear battle. The Battleers had to wipe out their own teddy brigade with softballs, which the boys relished, but the girls did not! At this point a rest was required, and pink lemonade and strawberries and cream revived the crowd. And so we came into the finale of the picnic, and at this point the Battlecry, with the teams screaming at the top of their voices to terrify the opposition, and Mr Eckhoff was at hand with a decibel meter to confirm the winning team by one decibel: The Bin Liners. The cake competition was judged, and of course, the edible teddybear made by Harriet Nurse won- leaving one last thing to do: the charge. The Battleers amassed at the bottom of the hill with their teddybears, ready to charge Mr Eckhoff and Ms Montford at the top, to which Mr Malewicz unleashed the battle cry, and the Battleers “won the day”.
