We are inviting all children at home to join in with our creative Lockdown Art Project established by our wonderful Art Teacher Mrs Harmer. Our key worker children in school will be helping to create a special collage in school of everyone's memories of being in lockdown during the Covid-19 outbreak. Please see below for full instructions on how to participate.

Well done to the Y5/6 Girls Football team who not only won every one of their four games but were also overall winners in the inter-school football tournament at Bohunt. You all did brilliantly girls and we are very proud of your tenacity, teamwork and overall sportsmanship.

We are delighted to announce that our Year 6 girls: Isobel, Delilah, Lilla and Milly were worthy winners at the Haslemere Schools' Children in Need charity event.
Shottermill Juniors welcomed Mandy from the Speak Out Stay Safe NSPCC campaign and completed sponsored obstacle courses in their PE lessons.

The children have been learning about the importance of WWI and the Great War through our poppy appeal and through the commemorative wreaths hanging on our wall near the main entrance. Children from the School Council will be laying the wreaths on 11th November at two local Remembrance Services.
Iris and Alex Sinclair also prepared a moving assembly to tell us their personal story about a member of their family lost in military circumstances at the age of 19. Relatives of the family were awarded the Elizabeth Cross, which we were able to show to the children.

The children took part in Feeling Good Week, which focussed on a theme of building resilience and developing positive mental health in our pupils. Activities included a Growth Mindset NED talk, Confidence Workshops, peer massage, Theatre Monkeys, STOMP as well as our Shottermill Sports Day!
We held another hugely successful Choral Poetry Competition this summer term, where all classes performed in front of the judging panel and parents. Congratulations to 5T class who won with their inspirational performance of Macbeth. Special thanks to Sue from Haslemere Bookshop, who came along to help judge the performances for a third year running!
We were delighted to host our first ever inter-school Art Competition, on the theme of Celebration of Summer for pupils across the Haslemere Confederation of schools. Pupils from St Bart's, Beacon Hill and Shottermill Juniors all won prizes. Thank you to Olga Houghton Head of Art from Highfield School who helped to judge the work with Mr Brian Moulds, Chair of Governors.
Year 6 raised over £800 through their Business Enterprise project. Thank you to Mr Brian Moulds (Chair of Governors) who came in and kick started the project with an inspirational talk about making profit and how to start up a business from scratch. The children have decided to put their profits to new PE equipment on the bottom playground. Thank you children!
