What a fantastic way to round off the half term! Today's assembly explored the big question: "What is your favourite Halloween song?" We got into the spooky spirit with Mr Bury's Drum Challenge, before enjoying an amazing performance of Ghostbusters, with the song played in the background by our talented students and staff members. The assembly continued with another fantastic musical performance of Zombie by The Cranberries from our talented Bower Grove Band. We are incredibly proud to say that this year's band is the largest Bower Grove Band we have ever had! The celebrations continued as we announced the winners of our Halloween Raffle and Golden Table Awards. A huge congratulations to Squirrels, our Golden Duck winners this week! The Golden Duck is now off for a well-earned spooky half-term break before returning after the holidays.
No carving pumpkins? No problem! Squirrels have transformed ordinary potatoes into wonderfully spooky Halloween characters. We love their creativity and imagination!
Some updates from our sailors.
