Creativity and excellence do not flourish in a vacuum or on a whim. It was a joy and a privilege to watch the rehearsals for the Year 5 concert this afternoon. The steely determination of our young musicians to overcome their nerves; their concentration and focus, drawing on the rigour of hours and hours of practice to deliver flawless and effortless seeming performances. Well done, Year 5, and thank you to all of our music teachers for keeping the passion going through the practice.

Lest we forget. How do you even begin to explain, to children aged 4 to 11, the horrors of war and the ultimate sacrifice made by so many for peace? It is the mark of an exceptional educator to be able to do so. At 11am this morning, following a very moving speech by Mr Maddocks, 254 little girls stood for 2 minutes, absoutely still and in absolute silence, to honour the fallen.

There are national and international days for everything these days, but sometimes two fall irresistibly on the day, as on today, International Sandwich Day AND Japanese Culture Day. So, it seemed only fitting to share the recipe for St C`s favourite furutsu sando. Take a couple of crusts of #curiosity, spread generously with the cream of #creativity, fill with the kiwis of #kindness and the clementines of #community, don`t forget the strawberries of #stellarachievements and garnish with a random blueberry of #beyourbestself

What is there not to love about a multi-faith festival symbolizing the victory of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance?
Thank you to all our parents who take the time to come in to school throughout the year to share their special traditions and celebrations with our pupils. Our pupils` lives and learning are immeasurably enriched by these acts of generosity and sharing.

Meet Philosophy Bear. Or ursa philosophica, as Mr Maddocks would say, or even Velocity Bear, as a girl in Reception has dubbed PB (which is very advanced indeed, as we don`t study velocity till Year 3!) Philosophy, however, is embedded in our curriculum from Reception onwards. Each form has its own bear, who goes to stay with our pupils at weekends, bringing with them the Philosophy Bear Book, full of interesting open-ended philosophical questions for all the family to enjoy, and often returning with a natty new pupil-crafted outfit.

The best thing about our sports team photos is that it is quite impossible to tell from them if a match was won or lost #itshowtheyplayedthegame The girls` sheer, joyful love of the game is a credit to them and to their wonderful coaches and role models Mr Finney and Miss Cox.
