Thank you National Army Museum for delivering a fantastic online workshop all about Florence Nightingale and Mary Seacole to Year 1. We learnt so much about their work and how they are remembered today. We also got a chance to see some of the objects that would have been a part of their day to day lives, working in hospitals in the Crimean War. Look out the ‘Florence and Mary Scavenger Hunt’ in your child’s book bag tonight, where children can continue this learning at home.
Welcome to Stoke Park Primary School. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer guided tours around our school at the moment, so please enjoy watching this video tour of our school.

Diwali is the Indian festival of lights, usually lasting five days and celebrated during the Hindu Lunisolar month Kartika.
Stoke Park Primary celebrated in style today.
In Year 3, we used clay and paint to make our own Diyas (beautifully decorated candle holders), we learned about the story of Rami and Sita, we created a Diwali dance using Indian Dance Mudras (hand movements), we used colourful rice to create our own Rangoli patterns and we used intricate pencil skills to design our own Mehndi patterns.
Happy Diwali Everyone!
The Nursery children have been learning about keeping safe during Bonfire week and had the opportunities to experience different activities – making firework pictures using a new technique (tapping a brush), creating firework swirls and zigzags in glittery flour, some of them made firework posters informing others how to keep safe e.g. Keep pets inside, Stand back, ONLY adults to light fireworks, wear gloves if holding a sparkler.
They even had a very small REAL fire at Forest School. They helped to collect dry sticks, learnt the safety rules and then watched the flames grow bigger. Maxwell told everyone, “The water is to put out the fire when we’ve finished”
