We are delighted that our Year Six 11+ Results this year are officially the best in the borough. Our children, as always, have worked exceptionally diligently to achieve the very best they can and we know they all will move to their next school of choice with a very solid academic foundation. It is a clear demonstration that our small class sizes, excellent teaching and supportive community can produce some outstanding results.
Very well done to all the children who joined-in with Benedict House’s Children in Need last Friday. We had a fantastic day of fundraising which included the children wearing their own clothes to school for the day; their own swimming costumes in the pool; an outstanding cake sale featuring some delicious home baked Pudsey cakes; a wristband sale; and, of course, the Benedict House Talent Show.
The show saw some burgeoning talent, with 17 entries of an exceptionally high standard – ranging from dance to karate, from guitar to breakdancing. Our judges had a difficult task in picking the winners and finally decided to crown Raees with the top prize for his slick break dancing. In second was Aiyesha with a wonderful voice; third was Noah and his excellent rendition of Jessie J on his guitar; fourth was Thomas and some nimble fretwork creating the Harry Potter music and fifth were Femi, Maureen and Lauren for a guitar and vocal take on Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer.
The children’s outstanding efforts mean that Benedict House raised £425.90 for a very worthwhile charity!
