The River Whale

The children in Class 3 have read ‘The River Whale’ by Sita Brahmachari in class today. The book is part of the list of £1 books available to buy with their book tokens.
They have created their own whales, described a river environment and created their own diving bedroom. All these activities were inspired by the book, which the children all liked very much.
Well done Class 3, we’ve had a super day.

Book Favourites

To mark World Book Day, the children in Class 1 have enjoyed sharing their favourite books today. We looked at the books and then the children wrote about why they liked that particular one.

Book Cover Designers

Before half term children at Dudley House were set a challenge of creating their own book cover for World Book Day.
Children thought of their own titles, author, cover designs. Children in Key Stage 2 also designed the spine, created the blurb and other information for the back cover.
The three winners were announced and presented with a selection of books or design materials in assembly this morning.
Well done to everyone who took part. 😊

Support Us

Dudley House School, is amazingly blessed with parents who truly believe in the education the school offers. When, during a recent parents’ evening, it was revealed that the school was experiencing COVID-19-related financial troubles, the earnest desire to help the school survive and thrive was evident on all faces – as parents have seen the difference that this school is making in their children’s lives. Parents decided to help the school in any way they could; and one of them – Katie, a local Grantham resident, whose daughter attends the school and has benefited tremendously from attending it – created a GoFundMe page for Dudley House.
We hope and pray that God will continue to bless Dudley House School as a shining beacon of light for children in Grantham for many years to come as it makes such a difference in their lives!
If you would like to help support this small independent school, Katie’s GoFundMe page and the story of how Dudley House School helped her daughter can be found at: https://gofund.me/48de429a
Why not enrol your own children at Dudley House School and see for yourselves the difference this Christian school is making in the lives of children?

Gymnastics Fun

Class 3 were really excited to have a socially distance P.E. lesson using our gymnastic equipment.

Still Life

A still life was set up in Class 3 yesterday. To enhance their observational skills, the pupils first did a continuous line sketch, then a blind sketch before lightly sketching and painting using tempera or water colours. I think you’ll agree they look stunning.

Guided Reading Inspired Science

Today in Class 3 our guided reading was a non-fiction text all about water transportation. We used the text to answer questions about how water towers use gravity to provide constant water pressure to our homes. We also learnt how, the scientist and mathematician, Archimedes invented a device to allow water to travel uphill for irrigation purposes. In class we made our own versions. AM and ST even managed to get theirs to work!

Amazing Cars

Class 2 have been very busy designing and making vehicles. They are amazing and very fast.

Bird Feeders

The children in Class 1 are working hard in Lockdown. As part of our Winter topic, they have been thinking about what winter is like for birds and animals. Today, they have used some instructions, taken from the RSPB website, to make bird feeders to help the birds through this cold weather.

Hedgehog Homes

One of the tasks that the Class 1 children have been set is to make a hibernation home for a Hedgehog. Each child was given a small Hedgehog, kindly knitted by Mrs Glover (Senior), and a link to an online story called ‘Don’t hog the hedge’. A, who worked carefully to make her home for ‘Hattie’ Hedgehog using a shoe box lid, a cardboard tube, glue, different shades of brown paper, matchsticks, raffia and some white sand to represent the snow.
Well done, Hattie looks very cosy.
