NOTIFICATION Dear Parents and Carers,
On Thursday 8th November we held a grand opening of our new and outstanding EYFS Outdoor Area... The area was officially opened by Michael D’Souza. This follows months of hard work by
OuterSpace. This has meant that the emergency gates in Badminton close will no longer be used to enter the playground. Please see below a letter which has already been sent out to parents/carers.
Our pupils look forward to enjoying this new fantastic space.
Mrs D. Byron Headteacher
POLITE NOTICE Lovely neighbour in Walton Road has asked
parents from Marlborough School if they could be extra vigilant when dropping off their children, as his elderly wife has dementia and tends to walk in
the road. Please be aware and take care.
Congratulations to all the children who have achieved core skills recognition in the first weeks of the academic year

On the 27th September, Year 2 were lucky enough to have a visit from Peter at A-Life. Peter came to our school to deliver not only one but two workshops to support the children's learning in our Science unit
'Animals including Humans'. The day began with a Healthy Living Workshop where the children, support by some super Year 4 helpers, completed a range of hands on, practical activity consolidating their learning
about the importance of hygiene, exercise and eating the right amounts and types of food. In the afternoon, Peter then took them on a fun fitness adventure. Here, the children lived through an exciting, adventure
story which involved practical exercise activities to match the story being told. It was a fantastic experience and the children truly benefited from the day.
Here are some quotes from the children...
"The workshop was very nice because I learnt some new things about fruits and vegetables. I didn't know that mangoes grew on trees!" Amelia, 2 Dali
"I learnt that food goes through your digestive system." Tavia, 2 Gaudi
"I was surprised to find out that orange juice has more sugar than coke!" Lily, 2 Gaudi
"I learnt how much sugar sweet things really have and I was shocked!" Henry, 2 Dali
"I will make sure I am exercising every day!" Shamla, 2 Hockney
A-Life Healthy Workshop
Class 2 Gaudi
Today, Mr.-A from A-Lice came and spoke to us about keeping healthy. I enjoyed seeing how many sugar and
salt they had. I liked it because you got to see who has the most and least.
I learnt how to keep fit by doing lots of running and jumping. My favorite exercise was running like a
helicopter. I liked it because it was fun running around.

When I went to the River Thames, the
experience was amazing. There were
many parts to look at. There were
bridges and buildings towering over the
river, it was a great sight. The river was
rushing by and I could hear the water
screaming down the river path. This trip
was definitely worth the wait. The sight
was very majestic even if the water was
dirty. When we were drawing the river it
took very long as the river had many
parts. I loved this trip and wish we could
be there longer.

I found the trip interesting and exciting because there were lots of things to
learn. We learnt a lot of amazing, wonderful facts about the River Thames. I
liked this trip a lot because we got to sketch as well as learn. I found this
trip very fun because of the river cruise we went on. The river cruise was
perfectly normal but the fun thing was we got to be with our friends.
Overall I think our whole year group loved it.

On Thursday, Year 5 went on a trip to the River Thames.
The thing I enjoyed was the amazing boat trip! On our trip
we went to London and we sketched the River Thames in
our Art books. The thing I learnt on the trip was that
London Bridge was the bridge with the towers was called
the Tower Bridge.

Our Trip to River Thames “On 27th September 2018, Year 5 had gone to the famous, River Thames in Central London. It was one of the best, educational trip ever!” the trip included the extraordinary river cruise which gave us information on the famous monuments we passed. “The cool breeze just swept my hair from right to left, when the boat started…” “This helped a lot in everyone’s learning and it gave us some excellent knowledge….” Harshita
5 Austen
On our class trip to the River Thames I enjoyed sketching the
River because there was a wonderful view in-front of us. I
also enjoyed when we went on the boat because it was a
fantastic experience. I also loved learning new facts about the
Thames and London. My most favourite experience was going
to London for the first time. This was one of the best
experiences ever. Thank you Year % Teachers!

On September 27th, Year 5 went to the River Thames. It
was a very long journey, but we made it right on time.
When we got out of the train we saw the London Eye.
The London Eye was so close to me that I couldn’t
measure how big it was.
It was my birthday on that day, I was so excited, that I
was bursting around with happiness. We sat near the
London Eye and drew what we saw. I drew the boat
waiting to move, but it was too late! But I still saw
other boats.
I was so hungry by lunch time, after we had our lunch
we waited to go on the boat. There were two lines, one
for the River Cruise and one for the London Eye.
When we went on the boat we saw London Bridge.
London Bridge does not have a tower, this is Tower
Bridge. Big Ben is not a tower but it is a bell.
Waving at people on the bridge will give you 5 years of
good luck. So I tried to get their attention. Shakespeare
Globe is the only building with a thatched roof in
London, due to the fire risk associated with the
material.

My trip to the River Thames was so much fun! I learnt lots of new things and
have lots of memories with my friends. One of the memories was when we
were drawing the landscape and Sadie drew a Titanic scene where they were
on the edge of the boat. I burst out laughing and fell on the floor on board the
River Cruise boat. The tour guide told us lots of facts. I remember that Vicky
said “If you wave at people on the bridges you get 5 years of good luck!
On Sunday 30th of September, Marlborough won the Korfball Tournament for Year 4, 5 and 6 children in Harrow. This means that, at the moment, Marlborough is at the top of the Harrow League. A massive thank you to all of the parents and ex-Marlborough students who came to
support our team.
I feel myself to be lucky as I represent my school in the Korfball tournament. Korfball is a ball sport,
with similarities to Netball and basketball. We were a team of six students. We played four
matches with different school teams. The score of the first match was 3-3, the score of the second
match was 3-1 to us, the score of the third match was 7-0 to us and the score of the last match was
8-1.
At the end we gained 7 points and won the tournament. I think our communication and long pass’s
made us win. Then the prize distribution was held and we were awarded with a trophy and medal.
We had a spectacular time with each other.

On the 2nd October a group of Educational Leaders from the Czech Republic visited Marlborough to
get an insight to life at our school
Feedback from one of the visitors
Dear Mrs. Byron
I was part of the Czech teachers’ party that you so kindly allowed to share a day in the life of
Marlborough School earlier this month. My colleague, Lenka Krausova and I were so impressed and
inspired by your school, but most especially by the amazing young prefects that took care of us that
day. They were such articulate and engaging young children and they made our visit even more
memorable.
I wish you, your staff and your brilliant school nothing but the very best for the future.
CZECH STUDY VISIT
All children received a free book from the
book trust called Little Monkey. We
introduced the book by reading the story
to parents and children helping to
immerse the children into the book. We
all had a lovely morning being involved in
creative activities linked to the story.
Book Trust Day in Reception
Diwali day
On the 1st of November we celebrated
Diwali in Reception. The children were
involved in creative activities making
Rangoli patterns, dressing up in Diwali
clothes and cooking Diwali sweets.
Parents were involved to join the Diwali
fun.
Diwali Day at Marlborough
Black History at Marlborough
Marlborough Primary School was buzzing with excitement as all the children enjoyed a range of cross curriculum learning activities to celebrate Black History Month.
The school recognised black history and culture by focusing on the migration of the Windrush generation in fun and exciting lessons in history, English, art and design and geography.
On Monday 8th October 2018, Mr Sterling held an interactive assembly to introduce the topic where children learned the meaning of ‘migration’ by discovering some of the countries members of our own Marlborough community have emigrated from. Countries include Jamaica, Japan, Nigeria, the Netherlands, Australia, Somalia, India, Trinidad, Thailand, Turkey and France to name a few.
During the assembly, the children also heard the legendary poem ‘Windrush Child’ by John Agard. It is about the workers who left their home in the Caribbean to live and work in Britain following the Second World War seeking to meet Britain's need for workers to fill labour requirements. Many men had died during the war and the workforce was severely depleted. EYFS, Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 also received a visit from author Michael De Souza, (BBC Rastamouse) who spent time in their classrooms reading his books and developing a love for literature and storybooks.
On Friday 12th October a second assembly was delivered by Dr Neil, chairman and founder of Reach Society, a social enterprise which inspires and mentors young people. He explained that generations of Windrush migrants have succeeded in making Britain their home and have become an important part of British life. He also discussed the value of growing up in a multi-racial society and how the principles of tolerance and respect are essential. Information about the whole school writing competition was also shared at the assembly where children were invited to imagine they were a Windrush child and to submit a story or diary entry capturing the child’s wishes, hopes and fears. A staggering amount of high quality pieces of writing was submitted. Look out for the winners’ entries which will be announced and shared in the next newsletter!
Mr Sterling, History Leader, said: "This year was a special year for celebrating Black History in the UK as it was the 70th anniversary of Windrush. As one of the most diverse boroughs in London, we have a multicultural community at Marlborough and I'm glad we were able to deliver a great learning experience at our school where children recognised the contributions of the Windrush generation to British society."
Metropolitan Police Christmas Tree Project
Every year the Metropolitan police launch the Christmas tree project. Last year they
managed to provide over 19000 presents for children in care and received support from
across the country. This year we have decided to get creative and support this good cause.
Many children across the school have submitted their fantastic posters and they were full
of festivity and artistic skills. In this case Zaina from year 2 has won the Harrow borough
poster competition! This is an amazing achievement as so many entries from around
London were submitted. Zaina showed creativity and self-belief when designing her
poster in doodle club, she then showed perseverance when she finished off her design at
home and brought it back to submit for this competition. Zaina’s poster will go onto the
next stage, where she has been invited to Scotland Yard for the senior leaders to pick the
final winner to switch on the lights.
We wish you good luck and a big well done Zaina! You have made us very proud at Marlborough with your creative skills.
I feel happy because I got a certificate
from the MET police. I went with my
mummy and daddy and my sisters to
Scotland Yard. I went to the top floor
and saw a great view. The best part was
when I tasted the yummy food they
gave us. I am very proud of my design
because it is creative and I won the
poster competition for Harrow.
