Some of the children in Class 4 have been playing tennis this afternoon in an inter schools sports competition. They all played very well and enjoyed the experience of meeting children from other schools. As to be expected from Dudley House School children, their behaviour was amazing. Well done all of you.

Class 3 Explore Music
This afternoon we listened, moved and responded to different genres of music, expressing how they made us feel, whether we liked the style of music and we also identified instruments used to create the music. We then explored and experimented with sounds we could make with percussion instruments from different countries and different ways they could be played. We carefully chose instruments and worked together to create our own soundscapes.
Class 4 Arts Week
During Arts Week class 4 have made collaborative cardboard sculptures inspired by Barbara Hepworth. They have also used paper to sculpt into their own creations. They had a try at photography too, finding unusual ways to photographs items in class and playing with distance to create some trick photographs.
Jubilee Celebrations
Dudley House School children have celebrated the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee in style today. All the children made hats to wear, that were very regal! The children in Class 1 and 2 made some very tasty gingerbread men to share. The children in Class 4 have worked particularly hard making and decorating fairy cakes, decorating two wonderful jubilee cakes as well as making the sandwiches. The children thoroughly enjoyed their feast. The party continued into the afternoon with games and ice creams.
Assembly with Lightspace
Mrs Fytche from Lightspace visited Dudley House School today, she told the children all about Psalm 23 (The Lord’s my Shepherd) which is one of the Queen’s favourites. One of the children said that the psalm was like our lives and he believed God supported him in good times and bad times just like the good shepherd did. Mrs Fytche told us that the Queen believes that God is with her even when she has difficulties and struggles. The assembly was a lovely time of quiet reflection in the midst of what was a very busy party day. Thank you Mrs Fytche for visiting our school.
