On 3^rd February 2026, our Choir, along with 5000 other children, attended the Young Voices concert at Wembley OVO Arena. After months of practice and learning 11 songs, they experienced an evening of a lifetime. They sang with celebrities including Ruti, the winner of The Voice, Michelle John, (vocal coach for Rita Ora, Girls Aloud and a performer in her own right), Aneesa Folds (singer from Freestyle Love Supreme). Parents arrived in the evening to watch the children and also had an opportunity to sing and dance. The children really enjoyed the day and are looking forward to returning next year!

Last week, our school celebrated cultural week and our focus was ‘The Countries from the Commonwealth.’ During our guided reading lessons, we looked at the 2023 Commonwealth short story winner and Jamaican born writer, Kwame Mcpherson’s, ‘Occee’ – a story about racism and discrimination as an immigrant. In addition, the children also participated in a carnival dance workshop where they were able to explore the dance style of a carnival. They were remarkable! Keeping with the active theme, as a year group, we played a traditional commonwealth game from India called ‘Kabaddi’ – despite the windy weather, the children thoroughly enjoyed themselves. To finish off our celebration of culture, the children created beautiful pieces of artwork from different countries around the commonwealth, ranging from Aborigini art to travel posters of the time. 

As part of a vibrant Cultural Week in school, the Year 5 children enthusiastically participated in a high-energy Bhangra Dance Workshop. The session began with an introduction to the dance’s origins in Punjab, India, where it was traditionally performed to celebrate the spring harvest festival, Vaisakhi. Led by expert instructors who broke down complex movements into bite-sized steps, the students learned iconic techniques such as high-energy, rhythmic movements characterised by a deep knee bounce, energetic shoulder shrugs and lively arm gestures. The workshop culminated in a joyous group performance, where the children showcased their new skills, fostering a sense of teamwork and a deeper appreciation for South Asian heritage.

The Minet Junior School football team put in a fantastic performance at their recent Premier League Primary Stars tournament, showing great determination and teamwork throughout. The boys progressed into the group stages and got off to an excellent start, winning their first match 2–0.

Out of six teams competing, Minet finished an impressive third overall and successfully reached the quarter-finals. Although they were unfortunately knocked out after two tough matches, the team showed a huge improvement compared to their last competition.

Most importantly, the boys were absolutely fantastic in the way they played together, supporting one another and maintaining a really positive attitude throughout the tournament. Their teamwork, effort, and sportsmanship were a credit to the school, and they should all be very proud of their performance.

The year 6 children have been learning about World War 2 since last term and to enhance their learning, they went to the Battle of Britain Bunker in Uxbridge. They were able to see and touch actual artefacts from the Second World War and took part in a carousel of activities to gain an understanding of what it would have been like to work in the bunker.  Being able to go down to the actual Bunker and be in the very same place that Winston Churchill once stood was a fascinating experience the children will never forget!
