Children in Need - Herne Bay High School 'Dance Dash' visit
Today we invited the children to attend school wearing non-school uniform in return for £1 donation to help raise funds for Children in Need. Some of them looked fabulous wearing their Pudsey inspired clothing; all for such a worthy charity.
Herne Bay High School visited during the morning to dance their routines before dashing off to another local school as part of their annual ‘Dance Dash’. All donations that we received from our non-uniform collection were passed on to the HBHS team. They will donate the money as a collective from us all.

Mr. Egypt Visit - Year 4
Before half term Year 4 had an exciting start to their 'Ancient Worlds ' Topic with a visit from Mr Egypt, who is an Egyptologist. The morning consisted of learning about life during the Ancient Egyptian times and the children even had a go at dancing! During the day, the children wrote their names in hieroglyphics and had a go at Egyptian Maths. In the afternoon, the children learnt about mummification and even had a go at wrapping a mummy, which was great fun! At the end of the day, Mr Egypt retold a fantastic story about a boy and his passion for the Egyptians.
World Black History Month
On Wednesday we dedicated the day to take some time to celebrate World Black History Month.
The whole school were involved in an “Arty Day” and the children were inspired by some astounding artists; Y3- Romare Bearden, Y4- Alma Thomas, Y5- Romare Bearden and Y6- Carolyn Mims Lawrence.
Classes also listened to a range of great music while creating some fantastic artwork of their own.
We truly have some amazing talent in our school.
Mental Health Day at HBJS
Mental Health Day at HBJS
On Monday, we recognised World Mental Health Day. All children were invited to wear yellow to school to show young people that how they feel matters. We want to help create a future where all young people get the mental health support they need, when they need it, no matter what.
It was lovely to see all the children wearing yellow and showing their support for a great cause.
