MUSIC FESTIVAL INSPIRES ALL
The pupils at Kew Green are busy at work in their Music lessons already, with singing and playing of instruments and performance present and
encouraged across the the school whether it be in class music lessons, choir, instrumental lessons or assemblies. Congratulations to our solo performers
who played in our assemblies, and also to all the children for a rousing rendition of 'All Things' as part of our Harvest Festival songs at St.Anne's Church.
The Upper School Choir enjoyed jazzing it up when they attended the Prep School Choir event at Epsom College where we joined five other local
schools, creating a 250 pupil choir, complete with scat singing, trumpet imitations and groovy waltzes. After half-term, we look forward to our annual
Upper School Choir performance at Kew Sparkle; theYear 1 and 2 Christmas play and Upper School Carol Concert.
FIXING UP FOR
THE FUTURE
It’s been a busy first half of term for all the children at KGPS in their
sport. At the start of a new school year, it’s essential to start with high
expectations, blowing away the summer cobwebs and aiming high!
Our swimming lessons from Year 2 – Year 6 have begun with lots of
excitement and we have started the term with high participation in
our school Swim Squad who train on Wednesday at 7:30am which
has been brilliant to see. Specialist PE & Games lessons, additional
training sessions, extra-curricular sports clubs and fixtures have all
been geared towards helping our teams progress and be ‘match
ready’. Each year group should be proud of all they have achieved
so far, with all pupils showing excellent commitment,
communication and teamwork. Although gearing up for some key
competitions and fixtures after half-term, we have played several
fixtures in both netball and football, already achieving excellent
results and starting the season off with great momentum! It is clear
how hard all the pupils are working, both for their own
achievement, but also for each other as a team. We are very proud!
In addition to the netball and football this term, we have had a great
start to our gymnastics lessons at Osterley, where pupils have been
showing off their balance, agility and core strength. They have learnt
to work effectively in small groups, performing to a high standard as
a team during sequence displays.
