News Whitehorse Manor Infant School

Our friends at Thornton Heath Nursery School (THNS) are starting a new ‘Stay and Play’ after the half term holiday. 

What an exciting experience reception have had today!  We were visited by our local firefighters and were able to see a fire truck up close.

This term so far in Nursery, we have been learning all about transport.

Children have been focusing on plants this term in science. Getting hands on, we planted our own broad bean plants and have been eagerly watching them shoot up ever since.

This week Reception have been reading the African themed version of the story ‘The Princess and the Pea’ by the author Rachel Isadora.

On Wednesday afternoon, the school council team from Whitehorse Manor Infants came together to perform a whole-school road safety assembly.

Today Whitehorse Manor Infants School celebrated the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. We were so impressed with the effort and creative outfits that the children came dressed in, using red, white, and blue from the Union Jack.

This week in reception we have been reading the traditional tale ‘Jack and the Beanstalk’.

This week Reception have had a fun filled week learning about the fairytale ‘The Three Billy Goats Gruff’.

This week we welcomed back Reception and jumped straight into our new topic ‘Once upon a time’.

With recent higher numbers of COVID cases across the UK the SLT of the Pegasus Academy Trust has put in place some new precautionary measures to keep us all safe as we enter the last weeks of term. 

Hello to all of our Pegasus families wherever you are reading this. 

Following the Prime Minister’s announcement today (Wednesday 30th December) and the publication of the accompanying guidance it is now clear that Croydon schools, including our schools within the Pegasus Academy Trust, will not reopen on 5th January as planned.
