Good company, delicious food... perfect!



We had a great afternoon eating wonderful food and chatting. I was really impressed by the mature behaviour of the kids, the way they asked each other politely to be passed dishes of food, they way they chatted about the flavours and textures and the way they took responsibility for clearing up afterwards. It was an excellent way to spend time with them and to get to know them all in a different situation. Look out for recipes for some of the most popular dishes on the website soon.

Have a really good holiday, relax, sleep, run around, see friends and family, read books, watch movies, eat good food and... be ready to work even harder when we get back!

Do you like to find out what is going on in the world?

Have a look at the "Time For Kids" website. It's a website that is made just for kids... news stories, games, kid scoops, homework helpers and much more. Here is the link:

I'm going to put a permanent link on the lefthand side of this page so you can get to Time for Kids whenever you want.

End of Term Party






At the end of term, most classes have a party to celebrate. They get crisps, chocolate, sweets and stuff like that and then all go hyper and crazy, making a mess all over the floor and ending the term in chaos.

Mr Sherratt doesn't really like to do things that way... sorry!!! He would like 4S to have a banquet, a feast of fantastic flavours from around the world. So, he is going to ask the kids in his class to bring in one of their favourite dishes for us to share.

Don't bring too much, just enough so that we can all sit together at a table and try a little bit of everything. Please write in the comments what you plan to bring for the feast.
