🍎🍋 Poetry in the making in Year 2! Year 2 have been putting their senses to work in English, touching, smelling, observing and tasting different fruits to help develop their descriptive vocabulary. From juicy and sweet to fresh and crunchy, the children have been gathering lots of interesting words to use in their own poetry writing. A lovely hands-on way to bring language to life! #BurhillPrimary #Year2English #CreativeWriting #TheBurhillWay #Year2

Who got a Golden Ticket? 🌟 Lunchtimes at Burhill are about much more than just eating lunch, and it's lovely to see children making them enjoyable for everyone!

Congratulations to last week's GoldenTickets holders – we're proud of you! #TheBurhillWay #BurhillPrimary #SurreyPrimarySchool

Roman life brought to life at Sayers Croft! Our Year 4 children had a brilliant trip to Sayers Croft last week, stepping back in time to learn more about life in Roman Britain. They explored a roundhouse, discovered what life was like in the Roman army, tried on armour and even practised Roman shield formations together. They also got hands-on building their own ballista structures – the giant catapult-style weapons used by the Romans. A fantastic day of history, teamwork and learning outside the classroom! 🛡️🏹 #BurhillPrimary #LearningOutsideTheClassroom #SurreyPrimarySchool #SayersCroft

Celebrating Black History Month at Burhill! Throughout October, we’ll be marking Black History Month, giving our children opportunities to learn about and celebrate Black history, culture and achievements. Across the school, children will explore stories, people and events that have made a difference. This year’s theme, ‘Honouring Our Communities’, shines a light on the everyday people who make a difference – from local leaders and teachers to carers and community builders whose valuable contributions may be behind the scenes. #LoveofLearning #BurhillPrimary #SurreyPrimarySchool #BlackHistoryMonth

A trip to space… without leaving Burhill! Our school hall was transformed last week with a visit from the Space Dome, giving our Year 5 children an exciting opportunity to journey through space and learn more about our solar system. A brilliant way to bring their learning to life! #BurhillPrimary #Year5 #SpaceDome #PrimaryScience #SurreyPrimarySchool

💛 We’re going yellow for YoungMinds! 💛 A little reminder for the week ahead – this Friday 9th October, we’ll be supporting Hello Yellow and YoungMinds by inviting children and staff to wear something yellow to school.
