    Last month, seven of our talented pupils from Years 4 to 6 proudly represented our school for the very first time at a national football tournament held at St Georgeโ€™s Park โ€“ the home of the England football team โšฝ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง

    Competing against the top 28 independent schools in the country, this was no ordinary event. It was a truly prestigious and unforgettable experience for everyone involved.

    From the moment they stepped onto the pitch, our team showed incredible confidence and pride. They embraced the occasion, rose to the challenge, and demonstrated remarkable maturity throughout, making it through to the final group stage.

    Their enthusiasm, focus, and respect for the game shone brightly, making this an amazing experience not only for the players but for all who supported them.

    We couldnโ€™t be prouder ๐Ÿ‘โœจ

    Theyโ€™ll be:

    ๐Ÿ’ป Using digital tools to research and design
    ๐ŸŽจ Combining creativity with functionality
    โž— Applying maths through measuring, estimating and reasoning

    As part of our Anti-Bullying Week, weโ€™re reminding everyone that kindness isnโ€™t just for one day โ€” itโ€™s something we can show every day through our words, actions, and how we treat each other. ๐Ÿ’•

    Letโ€™s choose respect, empathy, and positivity โ€” because together, we can build a community where everyone feels safe and valued. ๐Ÿ’ซ

    ๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿ’™ Friday 7th November โ€“ WEAR BLUE DAY! ๐Ÿ’™๐ŸŒŠ

    This year we are combining our ongoing support for Just One Tree with Plastic Clever Schools to protect our oceans and raise awareness of plastic waste.

    The ocean is the cornerstone of Earthโ€™s life support system. It shapes climate and weather and holds the key to our future. ๐ŸŒ

    Kelp is in decline because it struggles to grow in warmer waters, so simply planting more isnโ€™t tackling the real issue. Thatโ€™s why Just One Tree is focusing on helping nature regenerate kelp forests โ€” supporting lasting change beneath the waves. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿชธ

    At SMHP, weโ€™ll be taking part in activities to learn how to protect our oceans and make sensible choices about plastic use.

    ๐Ÿ’™ All children and staff will be dressed in blue this Friday to mark the occasion and show our support for a cleaner, healthier planet! ๐Ÿ’™
