Hangleton News!
It has been a busy and productive start to Autumn 2! We have had lots of fun with stunning starts and trips in last two weeks, as a great way to launch the new topics and immersing the children in their learning. It has been great to welcome the expertise of Head Teachers from other Eko schools, their wealth of knowledge has been a great resource to draw from for our improvement as a Federation.
There's a Dinosaur in the School!
Year One had a lot of fun last week, trying to solve a mystery. They returned to school to find the classrooms were trashed and there were unusual footprints everywhere. After an important announcement from a local scientist, they discovered that a baby dinosaur had been spotted coming in to the school; luckily it was a herbivore, so they could not hurt us! The children were great at using their observation skills to look for clues both inside and outside the school, however, no dinosaur was actually found.
Eko Review
On Tuesday the school was visited by four heads from Eko Trust schools. This was an chance for them to get to know the school, the staff and the children. We have welcomed this as an opportunity to draw from resources that working with a family of schools offers. The team from Eko, were blown away by the dedication and warmth of the staff at Hangleton. They also noted how confident and articulate the children of the school were when talking about their learning.
Herstmonceux
Year four went to Herstmonceux Science Centre and had a fabulous day. They learned so much about their topic of sound and light. They particularly enjoyed the hands on learning and then also a light workshop. A highlight was making as much noise as possible to get the highest decibel reading! As expected they were polite and a credit to the school. Mrs Orr
Brighton and Hove Cross Country Championships
Under a blue sky, Hangleton children put on a great show at the Brighton and Hove Cross Country championships at Waterhall. Everybody represented the school brilliantly. Special mention to Otis (2nd), Jack (3rd), Will (6th) Holly (9th), Penelope (14th) and Max (15th) who will all go on to represent our city in the Sussex championships in early 2025.
