September Week 4
Friday 27th September
Wednesday evening was a night to remember for Livingstone School as we won a string of awards at the Barnet Sports Partnership Awards. We won Gold for KS1 and KS2 and top prize for Participation. However the star of the event was Jana, who not only opened the ceremony with a dazzlingly rhythmic gymnastics display, but also went on to win the prize for Outstanding Sporting Achievement for a Primary Pupil. Well done, Jana – we could not be more proud!
Congratulations to the whole team: Miss Fairley, Mr Thomas, Mrs Church and Mr Boucon who were there to accept the awards on behalf of the school but thank you also to Mr Ward who attended on behalf of the governors. Well done everyone!

Year 3Stone Age Trip
Year 3 looked at Stone Age Artefacts and made predictions about what they were and how they were used in Stone Age times. They found out about each one including tools, weapons, beeswax, reindeer antlers and flint.
They acted like hunter gatherers and walked around the nature reserve trying to locate 5 different species of plant that would be used for different purposes in the Stone Age. They also found out about the fire triangle and what people in prehistoric times used to make. Lastly, the pupils did a carousel of enquiry's using more artefacts to develop their knowledge of prehistoric animals and their features.
The enquiry questions were 'Whose tooth?' 'Whose skull?' 'Whose claw?'
Also, as an unexpected bonus Year 3 got to sit in a replica Viking longboat!

Year 4 Harvest Assembly
Year 4 and all the pupils sang beautifully and inspired us with the meaning of harvest and the importance of farming in our lives. Thank you to everyone for all the generous donations.
We were especially happy to welcome Autumn Gardens Care Home to our Assembly and are looking forward to more collaboration between the home and our school.
The food is being donated to the Friend in Need Charity in East Barnet Village to be shared amongst local residents in need of help.
Thank you to Miss Fairley and Mrs Boucon for preparing such an enjoyable assembly.
