A huge thank you to all of the Year 5 parents who supported the project morning yesterday. Thank you very much to those of you who were able to join us, we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did. We are also very grateful to all of those who cooked such wonderful food for us to share. Thank you so much!

We are extremely pleased to announce that our school choir has reached the finals of the Hounslow Music Service Choir of the Year competition. The final competition will take place at the Paul Robeson Theatre in March – we wish them all the best. Well done to all of you.

After a hard fought battle the pupil’s quiz team was triumphant narrowly beating the staff team in Ivybridge Challenge. It all rested on the final quick fire round – well done to both teams for taking part!

A small choir visited Atfield House today to entertain the residents, their performance went down so well they have been invited to go back several times during the year to perform and also to take part in other activities with the residents. Well done to those who took part and represented our school so well.

Tomorrow our choir will be visiting a local care home to sing Christmas songs to the residents. The choir were invited to sing at the home last year and are making a return visit by popular request this year.

Our Year 5 and 6 Drama Club performed Romeo and Juliet at Richmond Theatre on 28th November. They were supported by school staff and their parents who joined the audience to watch 4 Shakespeare plays in total. Obviously we thought Ivybridge were the best – they were brilliant! Many congratulations to the children and a huge thanks to Mr J and Mrs Lwin who worked so hard to bring this all together, we are very proud of you all.

Today Hounslow’s Mayor, Councillor Sue Sampson,  visited us to help plant some new trees. Our  local parish church, All Souls, arranged the donation of the trees by The Conservation Foundation through the Trees for Sacred Spaces project, which is supported by the Mayor of London. The vicar of All Souls, Richard Frank, joined us to help plant the trees with members of our school council, our Head Boy, Head Girl and Chair of Governors also lending a hand.

Councillor Sampson has fond memories of Ivybridge Primary as she attended the school as a child and enjoyed her return visit. We were very glad that she was able to find the time to join us and are looking forward to the trees flowering in the spring.
