We’ve loved sharing with you on this account. Moving forward, we’ll be more active on Instagram. Come and find us over there!

Y2 have been learning about The Blitz as their local history topic this half term. We had a History Day this week and dressed as evacuees. We wrote postcards from the countryside, compared ration shopping lists and also learned about air raids and Anderson shelters!

A team of 12 of Hillbrook's top Times Tables Rockers are preparing for a half-term battle against the All-Stars from St Matthews Bloxham School in Rugby! We wish them luck - let's bring home the crown!

Last week, Y4 went to an interactive poetry performance by Children’s Laureate Joseph Coelho, who grew up in Wandsworth! We celebrated his new book ‘Poetry Prompts’ which shares a life’s work of tips, tricks and guides on STARTING to write, perform and enjoy poetry.

Our children enjoyed a special lunch made by our brilliant kitchen team earlier this week, celebrating Black History Month!

Our staff had a wonderful time at the poetry session run by @JosephACoelho on Monday! We learned some great tips for getting children excited about writing poetry and can't wait to put them into practice in the classroom!

In science, Y3 have been learning about light. We have tested which materials are more reflective than others and we’ve been thinking about how images appear back-to-front when reflected in a mirror!

Last week, Y4 had the opportunity to go to @CoopParadise to participate in some outdoor activities which are good for our wellbeing. We loved going on a nature hunt, observing bugs up close, toasting marshmallows over a fire and building miniature shelters for creepy crawlies!

Here's Year 6 having a fabulous last week in school... Enjoying the French cafe, competing against teachers in a football match and celebrating their last day with a BBQ on the field! Wishing them, and all of our community, a restful summer. See you in September! ☀️

Year 6 did a fantastic job performing their production of Porridge to parents and pupils. We are so proud of the talented singers, dancers and actors we have at Hillbrook 🎭👏

and.... go! 🛩️

Year 3 enjoyed a Science trip to Tooting Common to test our paper aeroplanes. We had a great time observing air resistance and waiting for the biggest gust of wind to see which of our two designs would go the furthest!

Year 6 have now received their leavers' hoodies and are loving wearing them to school. Thank you to our PTFA for their kind donation towards them! @school_printing

On Tuesday, 8 children from Y5 represented Hillbrook at the @Emanuel_School Mathematics Competition. It was a hard fought battle but we are proud to report that Hillbrook finished the day in Second Place! A fantastic display of problem solving and teamwork from everyone involved!

Year 6 enjoyed a cinema night in the hall as part of their leaver celebrations. Thank you to our parent helpers for donating their time and popcorn machine to make the event a success!

Year 2 have been exploring the Wandle River as part of their Journey to the Sea topic. We had a great time with Robyn from @SE_Rivers_Trust who delivered a river assembly for us before taking us on an interactive river walk! 🏞️ 🚶

We loved taking part in the #CLiPPA shadowing scheme, learning and exploring poems from a range of collections. Watch our very own winning entry from Y5. Now she'll get the chance to perform the poem at the National Theatre, alongside other winners and famous poets! 👏🏆

This week our Year 6 pupils had a great time visiting Go Ape, Battersea as part of their end-of-year celebrations. We faced our fears climbing the tree tops and worked together as a team to complete challenges on the ground!

In Early Years last week, the children read My Name is Not a Refugee by @ABagForKatie and then wrote a postcard about how they would help Refugees. On Friday, all the classes wore their own clothes to raise money to support local charity @CARAS_LDN
