❤️ **A Day of Reflection and Remembrance** Our Head Pupils and Deputies from Burnt Oak joined schools from across TPA at South Norwood for a special act of remembrance. They worked together to deliver an original poem and lay a wreath. Back in school, children at Chatsworth and Burnt Oak - from EYFS to Year 5 learnt about the importance of Remembrance Day and the significance of the poppy. Everyone took part in a respectful two-minute silence. A lovely opportunity for our children to reflect, remember and understand why we wear our poppies. ❤️

🇺🇸 Did you know October is Principals Appreciation Month in America? No, neither did we… until now! 😂 3T, Miss Carr and Miss Mills decided to bring the tradition to Sidcup, surprising Miss Snow by covering her office in lovely, positive Post-it notes! Cake was involved too. 💛🤎 Miss Snow’s reaction? Waaaaaaaa! 😭❤️ Happy tears, of course! The real photo wasn’t quite Instagram-worthy, so here’s a rather generous AI version instead! 😂

🍜 One more experience ticked off the Pioneer Passport, and one we won’t forget! Nourish came into school today to deliver a fantastic stir-fry masterclass for our Year 3 children, helping them tick off ‘Cook a healthy meal’. 👩🍳🥦 The best review? Some children couldn’t even wait until they got home to tuck in and were spotted eating their creations as they left school! 😂 A huge thank you to Nourish for such a fun and tasty experience! ❤️
