News Whitehorse Manor Junior School

We are very excited to tell you that WHJUN have been donated over 800 books (by the Children’s Book Project) to share with the children.

Thank you to all the parents, carers and children who attended the initial meeting about the Year 6 residential trip 2022-23 last night. 

The Year 6 team are very excited to announce that this academic year’s residential trip for Year 6 has been finalised!

Today, years 3-6 at Brigstock thoroughly enjoyed taking part in workshops for the Lion King! 

This time last year I was approached by one of our parents, asking if we had any old and unused resources which might be useful to a Nursery School that her mother was setting up in Ghana. 

Yesterday, staff and children at Brigstock and WHJUN main site celebrated uniqueness by wearing odd socks. 

Today, Armistice Day, or Remembrance Day as it’s also known, marks the very day that World War One ended in 1918.

This week, the year 3 children from Whitehorse Manor Junior and Brigstock site went on a trip to Crystal Palace park. 

Extra bank holiday for the coronation of King Charles III As a result of the announcement by the Prime Minister allowing another bank holiday for the coronation of King Charles III the term dates for the schools in the Pegasus Academy Trust have now been changed. 

Year 6 have had a whirlwind of a week and a brilliant end to our half term. 

Each lunchtime, we have a dedicated trio of boys that love to get together and have a jam.

Year 3 have been really enjoying learning about dinosaurs in reading, literacy and thematic. 

On Wednesday, Year 4 visited the Shree Ganapathy Temple in Thornton Heath to support their learning in RE.

This half term, year 3 have undertaken a cross-curricular exploration of dinosaurs. 

One of the advantages to being part of a Multi Academy Trust is that all staff are part of a much bigger team than they would be in a single ‘standalone’ school.
