Reception Class

This week, we explored The Gingerbread Man, our first Drawing Club story! Children listened, drew and wrote magic codes to retell and innovate the tale. In provision, they made spiced dough, practised letter formations and used stick puppets to retell the story. On Thursday, we baked and enjoyed our own gingerbread biscuits!

PE day for Reception Class is on Mondays

Year 1 & 2

Year 1 and Year 2 had a fantastic time on their recent trip to Haslemere Museum! They explored the fascinating world of toys from the past, discovering what materials were used to make them and why. The children especially enjoyed playing with Victorian toys like spinning tops, doll houses, and Jacob’s ladders. Later, they visited the museum’s taxidermy gallery, where they were amazed by the variety of animals on display. They were able to share their knowledge about taxidermy and discuss why it was important to Victorians, who used it to study animals and display them for education and curiosity. It was a wonderful opportunity to connect their classroom learning with real-life examples.

PE days for Year 1 & Year 2 are on Mondays and Wednesdays

⚽ Year 5 & 6 Boys Football Tournament

On Friday 7th November, the Sandfield Football Squad proudly represented our school at the Guildford Schools Football Tournament. This annual event is always a challenging fixture, with many opposing teams featuring experienced club-level players.

Despite the tough competition, our boys showed tremendous resilience and teamwork. They defended with determination and attacked with confidence, working cohesively throughout each match. Sandfield managed to draw 2 out of 5 games, conceding only 5 goals across the tournament—a commendable achievement!

A heartfelt thank you to the families who came to cheer from the sidelines, and to Kate Oliver and Mike Cuin for their invaluable support. The boys thoroughly enjoyed the experience and demonstrated outstanding sportsmanship and team spirit.

As part of their World War II topic, Year 5 and 6 visited Henley Fort for an immersive Home Front experience. Pupils took part in a range of engaging practical activities including putting out simulated fires, practising grenade throwing, experiencing a blackout during the Blitz, exploring an Anderson shelter and manning checkpoints.

It was a memorable day that brought history to life and deepened their understanding of life on the Home Front.

All medicines must be in a pre-measured clear syringe that your child can administer themselves

Please label the container with the following:

Any medication in tablet form must be put into a small and sealed envelope with the same label as above.

We cannot accept bottles of unmeasured medication.
