Sea Life Centre Visit
This week, children in the Nursery and Reception classes visited the Sea Life Centre in Great Yarmouth. The children were given a guided tour so they could learn all about the fish and sea creatures in the centre. They were even allowed to touch a starfish! The trip was highly informative and thoroughly enjoyed by all the children. More pictures of this trip will be published on our Facebook page and in the website news section tomorrow.
Stars of the Week!
This week’s stars are as follows:
Charlie (Year 2) for neat and accurate handwriting and for tackling a difficult challenge in maths with great perseverance.
Lottie (Year 1) for moving up a level in reading and for excellent work in science.
Francesca (Reception) for working really hard with her reading and being very helpful in class.
Margot (Nursery) for being a very kind and helpful friend to a new child in Nursery.
Well done to all our stars!
Banham Zoo
Earlier in March, Years 1 & 2 visited Banham Zoo. The children looked at the differences between animals from different continents and learned how to identify whether they were carnivorous, herbivorous or omnivorous. The picture below shows the children in the sloth enclosure and, above our heads, we were very lucky to see the sloths climbing and eating fruit – a very rare sight!For more photos, please see our Facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/HethersettOldHallSchool/
Rainbows in Reception
This week, Reception Class presented an assembly all about the work they have been doing this term. They have been learning about water and told us all about rainbows, sang a song, displayed their beautiful rainbow mobiles and told us about rainbow fish. It was a wonderfully colourful and informative assembly enjoyed by all.

World Book Day
Today is World Book Day and the Prep School children did a wonderful job dressing up to represent their favourite literary characters. Wally in his red and white striped jumper, although difficult to find, put in an appearance as did Harry, Hermione and even Moaning Myrtle.

Staying Safe Online
Internet safety is covered at school but there have been some recent concerns in the media about children seeing distressing images or content whilst online. The following link takes you to a 2 minute video clip which reminds children about online safety and what they should do if they see any upsetting material. We hope it will help you to support them at home should they see anything inappropriate.
