News Cypress Primary School

Welcome back!  We have had a fantastic first week back and we can’t wait to enjoy all the wonderful learning experiences and events planned for this half term. 

This week has been very busy at Cypress Upper with both our Key Stage 2 Sports’ Days taking place.

What a spectacular way to start the new term! On Monday 1st June, our Year 3 pupils returned from their half-term holiday and immediately stepped into a time machine.

This week is Science Week and we have been exploring the theme of ‘curiosity‘ to find out about more about areas of science we are interested in.

After months of incredible dedication, focus and hard work, our wonderful Year 6 students have officially finished their SATs!

What an exciting start to a week we have had in Little Cypress!

Over the last couple of weeks in Year 1, we have been working hard to use fine lines to draw our African animal.

Superstar Writers! In Little Cypress, and especially in Nursery, we have been noticing that the children have been really interested in writing.

At the Lower School, we have learnt about different people who help us. 

This week Reception are immersing themselves in the traditional tale of “Jack and the Beanstalk,” so we have also been planting runner bean seeds as well as sunflowers, cress and sweet peas.

Today our three Year 2 classes travelled back in time and experienced what a day at the seaside might have been like during Victorian times.

Last Friday and this week, our Year 2 classes enjoyed visiting the Centre for Wildlife Gardening in East Dulwich.

May Days Once again we have had a fun-packed week in Nursery and Rainbows, despite it being a short one, following the May bank holiday on Monday.

At the Upper School this week, we have marked David Attenborough’s 100th birthday with a special assembly celebrating his life and work. 

At the Upper School this week, we have been thinking about how we use questioning to deepen our learning.
