Dear Parents Here we are at the end of another term. The children have had some amazing adventures and experiences again and we have enjoyed celebrating their successes. The Years 4 & 5 production of Rock Bottom and the Years 6 & 7 show, Madagascar, were real highlights for us all. It was great seeing…
Dear Parents I am extremely excited about attending tonight’s performance of Madagascar! The Years 6 & 7 have been working hard under Mrs Mayhews’ direction to produce what promises to be a thrilling production. Supported by the professional band – Mr Cortes, Mr Snell and Mrs Mitchell – we are in for a treat! It…
Dear Parents It was good to see that the rain and wind did not deter prospective parents from visiting the school for Open Morning earlier today. We had a very good number of visitors who were expertly guided around the facilities by our tour guides from Years 5, 6, and 8 . My thanks to…
Dear Parents As I don my wellies and make my way out to the field to enjoy the Year 3s’ flagship sporting fixture of the year, the Tag Rugby and Netball Festival, I am reminded of the busy and varied nature of our children’s lives. This afternoon, most of the rest of the school will…

Dear Parents Our Year 4 children had a great time at the Young Voices event at the O2 Arena on Monday. They sang with great gusto, I am told, and reports from parents point to it having been an excellent experience for all! Well done Year 4s and thank you to Mr Cortes for organising it…
I am often asked by parents what they can do to support their child’s learning in the early years of their school careers. Having secured a place in the school of their choice, parents can support children’s learning in a wide range of ways; most of which may appear to have little direct relationship to what…
Dear Parents Several members of our staff team have been visiting other Bellevue schools in the past week. Mr McCormack and Mrs Slater took part in a Learning Review at Skippers Hill Manor Prep School in East Sussex. Mrs Bradbury was part of the team at Bruern Abbey School in Oxfordshire at the end of…

Children really enjoy the links they make between different aspects of their experiences throughout the week and some of them demonstrated in assembly today what they have been learning. The variety was huge! My thanks to all the teachers who have been…
