School News

A huge and warm massive welcome back to school! It was so lovely to see you and the children this morning. I truly hope that you have all had a wonderful summer break and that everyone had some chilled and down time from the daily routines. But I am so glad to be back!

What a day! It is a strange one – full of so many mixed emotions – sadness at it being our Year 6’s last day and yet euphoria at making it through our first year in school – in its entirety – for a while.

Welcome back to our final term of the year! Crazy that I am writing that! It’s flown by!

I hope the children came home and talked about the wonderful afternoon that we all had! The sun came out! The hats looked amazing! Much flag waving and munching was done by all!

Some of Year 5 and 6 children took part in a Quickstick Hockey competition on Thursday 21st April at Gravesend Rugby Club. Our children were proud to represent Cobham at the event. They played amazingly as a team and loved participating in this event.

A huge thank you to everyone who attended this afternoon. It was so lovely to see you all. The children loved parading their beautiful bonnets in front of you! They were simply amazing!

What a week we are having! Yesterday’s Termly Trophy assembly was just fantastic. First one ‘live’ for 2 years! We have also just been entertained for over an hour with Cobham’s Talent Show for 2022. One of the my favourite events.

The children look great in their number and shape outfits today! Thanks for supporting the day! They are having a great week!

Ten children from years 5 and 6 represented Cobham at the Take Pride Basketball Competition on Thursday at Northfleet Technology College.

Hope half term was full of fun, making memories and some relaxing. I love this term as the mornings and evenings get lighter and it is simply a term full of promise. The children will have a great time learning – whilst having fun!

The last week of term is here! How that happened I do not know! But it has been an incredibly tough term for many of you and us. I hope everyone is OK and that we can look to the Spring coming.

Thanks received for money raised by children to help the KRAN charity who support young refugees in Kent, including those who visited the school in December.

As part of teaching the children about Online Safety at Cobham, we also like to keep you updated about current Online Safety issues for children of all ages. Please take the time to visit the sites and read the guides to help keep us all safe online!

In response to Year 4’s letters to the Prime Minister about plastic pollution the children have received this reply from Downing Street.
