Last night, the year 5 from the Bridges Federation entertained audiences at the Royal Festival Hall with an outstanding performance. The children have been rehearsing for the past few weeks with the Splash team and their hard work and resilience paid off on the night!

Here is a message from Jo the artistic director on the Splash project:

‘The whole Splash team would like to pass on their congratulations to all the children that took part in ‘How High The Moon’ last night, we all thought they did a brilliant job and sounded & looked fantastic, performing with such amazing confidence & commitment. However, none of this would have been the success it was without you the teachers who supported the team during rehearsals & managed the task of dealing with all the paperwork.’

We are really proud of all the children and teaching staff who made this such a wonderful event!

 

After weeks of rehearsals year 6 came together to perform an amazing version of The Lion King.

The preparation began with lots of line learning and mass singing rehearsals. The Circle of Life felt particularly relevant as Year 6 complete their journey through the ranks of Tower Bridge.

We worked a lot on embodying the animals and working out how the different herds interact with one another.

The result was a fully realised cast of characters who truly belonged in the jungle.  Year 6 and the staff of Tower Bridge truly did a brilliant job.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Special thanks to Michelle and Lisa for the staging and costumes.

Tammy and Ajita for their creative input.

Harry for staging, directing and inspiring the children to put in effort to make the show the success it was.

Year 6 for making sure they worked hard in all their roles to make it the success it was.

 

Thank you too to the staff and parents who supported the show and ensured lines were learnt and the hall was free for rehearsals.

 

We are delighted to share with you some exciting news!

Last night at the Southwark Excellence Teaching award ceremony, three of our talented staff members were nominated for special awards.

Well done to Richard our year 6 teacher at Snowsfields for being nominated for the Teacher of the Year Award.

We were really proud of Emma our year 5 teacher at Snowsfields who received the Teacher of the Year Award.

The awards kept coming!

Our Executive Head Kate received the Special Recognition Award for Services to Southwark schools.

Our children are really lucky to have such committed, creative and simply brilliant educators! 

This week Early Years went on a fantastic adventure by bus to the London Aquarium. We were excited to see the sharks, turtles, penguins, jellyfish, starfish,   seahorses as well as a variety of other sea creatures and plant life. We especially loved walking on glass over the shark tank (but some of us were scared!) Afterwards we had a class picnic next to the London Eye. Thank you to all adults who helped us to have a safe trip.

We have been working really hard with a company called ‘A Tale Unfolds’ on a film making project about the negative impact plastic has on the environment and especially on sea life. Our main objective was to create a film to encourage people to stop throwing plastic and all sort of non-recyclable rubbish. We want people to think how the future will be if the earth surface was covered in refuse. On the 19th June, we went to the IMAX cinema to watch the film we made. We were amazed to see ourselves on the giant screen. We had a great time!
Thank you to Dominic and everyone else.
