News Cypress Primary School

Last week we were treated to a concert showcasing the budding musicians we have at Cypress. 

This week, Year 3 have been taking part in Science week!

It has been Science Week and Refugee Week at Cypress. We have been considering the amazing contributions of people who have come to the UK fleeing war, natural disasters or persecution and used our empathy skills to imagine what it would be like to leave your home country, at short notice, with few or none of your personal belongings.

In Little Cypress this week we have been enjoying Science Week and learning all about the lifecycle of the butterfly.

We have had a Super Science Week at Cypress Lower School with exciting investigations in every year group! 

Our children had a fantastic time with their science experiments this week.

As part of our ‘Africa’ topic this term, our children attended a couple of dance workshops, led by a drummer and a dancer from Ghana.

We have launched our Science Week with two special assemblies. On Monday, Laura Ashfield from the Surrey Wildlife Trust visited us and inspired our children to become more aware of the wildlife in their surroundings. 

Another week and another exciting sporting experience. This week 6 children from Year 4 & 5 had the opportunity to practise 3X3 basketball.

It has been a warm week and an exceptionally warm day today!

Wow!  What a hot few days we’ve had in school.  We’ve all tried our best to keep cool, drink lots of water and stick to the shade. 

The children in Little Cypress have been observing how the mustard, cress and cat grass seeds that we planted a week ago have been growing.

The three reception classes had a very exciting visit from some exotic minibeasts this week.

We have had a week full of reflection, in particular considering how best to show that you care about others.

At our most recent sporting event, children were exposed to a new format of cricket – Dynamo Cricket.
