Some of you will know that our Year 8's were asked to present some information about a significant Victorian of their choice to the rest of their class. We are really impressed with their creativity and have put a few together in this little video https://t.co/yVNNnZJZpK

Can you believe it was a year ago today when we had our first Lion King performance? 🦁 The memory is still vivid in our minds, it was a spectacular show and our pupils shone like the stars they are 🌟 Did you see either of the shows? We would love to hear your memories ⬇️ https://t.co/YZzs9ReK01

Our Year 8's were set the challenge to choose a significant Victorian figure, research them and then persuade the class that their Victorian was more important than someone else's. Callie made this rap about James Starley, we couldn't love it more! 👏👏👏 #Kingshott #HistoryEd https://t.co/4DCoGbbg1o

Camembear has really enjoyed teaching French to his 'amis' in Nursery and Reception this year. 🇫🇷 We always have lots of fun singing, playing games and finding out all about Camembear's life in France. Can you remember how to name all these 'couleurs' in French? #Kingshott https://t.co/2qt461CyZ0

We thought we'd start the week with a video from two of our year 6 & 8 pupils (and siblings 👫) playing the middle movement of Handel’s Sonata for recorder, cello and piano in b flat major. 🎼🎵 We are sure you'll agree it sounds beautiful 😍 #Hitchin #Kingshott #MusicEducation https://t.co/ZiRg8hJEVn

Year 1 have been learning about WaterAid and the work they do in Africa to help people receive clean water 💧 A tippy tap works by using the foot to tap a lever to tip the water out from a container 💦 Some of our pupils had a go at creating their own. They look brilliant!👏 https://t.co/KKBudKLwhj

Year 5 have been studying the War and rationing, they had to write out their weekly diet and look at what would have been rationed in WW2. One of our pupils cooked up this tasty looking Spam Hash, he said, "It was ok but a bit salty!" 😍 #Kingshott #Hitchin #HistoryEducation https://t.co/OrCSsequyt
