Today our Year 4 pupils explored the world of sound waves in their Science class! They learnt how sound travels by turning ordinary tin cans into extraordinary communicators 😄

Exciting news! Today NMR received a very generous cheque from Wokingham United Charities for the redevelopment of our Key Stage 1 playground, with a new adventure play area. Thank you to @wokingham_united_charities, Finchampstead Parish Council and @fnmrpta for their incredible support, we are grateful to our local community for making this project possible. Members of our School Council, Mr Whitaker and Chair of the Local Advisory Board Rebecca Margetts were on hand to receive the cheque.

Our fantastic pupils and school community had fun last week raising funds for Children in Need! We all enjoyed our Non uniform day on Friday, and thanks to your incredible generosity, we've already raised an amazing £640 😃 If you would still like to donate, please do so via our Just Giving page which is linked in our stories - thank you! 🤗

Thank you to everyone who came along and supported our last Book Fair at NMR School - here is a photo of all of the books that we were able to order for our School Library following that event! 📚 🙏

We are so grateful to one of our parents for sharing the joy of Diwali with our Year 3 pupils! Children were shown how to create beautiful, vibrant rangoli patterns and shared gorgeous Diya lamps. It was a fantastic, informative and engaging afternoon. We hope that all of our families who celebrate Diwali had a wonderful time celebrating 🪔 🎇

A reminder that we will be raising money for @bbccin Children in Need this Friday. Pupils are invited to wear their own clothes, including anything spotty if they have it! Donations can be made via the JustGiving link in our Instagram Story. Thank you as always for your support 🙏

Today our school came together to honour the significance of Remembrance Day. Year 6 volunteers have been selling poppies during the week, and children throughout the school have been crafting beautiful red poppy designs. This morning, the entire school gathered for a poignant moment of silence, followed by the haunting notes of The Last Post. Let us remember, reflect, and honour those who sacrificed their tomorrow for our today.

As part of their Geography curriculum, our Year 1 explorers embarked on a journey through our local area. Along the way to the FBC, they spotted a wide range of houses, local amenities, and interesting features, learning more about our fantastic local community! 😊

Some of our Foundation Stage pupils brought in beautiful Diya lamps 🪔 to show and share with other children. These lamps are used during Diwali celebrations, and a tea light is placed within them to light up the dark nights. Children then had a go at creating their own Diya lamps using play dough.
