The children have been learning about the importance of WWI and the Great War through our poppy appeal and through the commemorative wreaths hanging on our wall near the main entrance. Children from the School Council will be laying the wreaths on 11th November at two local Remembrance Services.
Iris and Alex Sinclair also prepared a moving assembly to tell us their personal story about a member of their family lost in military circumstances at the age of 19. Relatives of the family were awarded the Elizabeth Cross, which we were able to show to the children.

The children took part in Feeling Good Week, which focussed on a theme of building resilience and developing positive mental health in our pupils. Activities included a Growth Mindset NED talk, Confidence Workshops, peer massage, Theatre Monkeys, STOMP as well as our Shottermill Sports Day!
We held another hugely successful Choral Poetry Competition this summer term, where all classes performed in front of the judging panel and parents. Congratulations to 5T class who won with their inspirational performance of Macbeth. Special thanks to Sue from Haslemere Bookshop, who came along to help judge the performances for a third year running!
We were delighted to host our first ever inter-school Art Competition, on the theme of Celebration of Summer for pupils across the Haslemere Confederation of schools. Pupils from St Bart's, Beacon Hill and Shottermill Juniors all won prizes. Thank you to Olga Houghton Head of Art from Highfield School who helped to judge the work with Mr Brian Moulds, Chair of Governors.
Year 6 raised over £800 through their Business Enterprise project. Thank you to Mr Brian Moulds (Chair of Governors) who came in and kick started the project with an inspirational talk about making profit and how to start up a business from scratch. The children have decided to put their profits to new PE equipment on the bottom playground. Thank you children!
The Mayor of Haslemere opened the new fitness equipment and playground markings on Monday 24th April with a special ceremony involving the School Council, House Captains and Sports Leaders. The Head Boy and Head Girl made a speech and helped Mrs Barnes to give the Mayor a tour of the new equipment and of the rest of the school. It was a fantastic event enjoyed by all.
We would like to thank The National Lottery for providing £10,000 of funding for this special project.

The red carpet was laid in the Year 3 classrooms for the screenings of children's movies created through our creative English lessons earlier this term. Popcorn was handed out and everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves!
262 of Shottermill Juniors' pupils, staff and volunteers went along this year to Young Voices 2018 at the 02 arena on Thursday 1st February. The children were joined by some incredible performers and learnt 34 different individual songs to perform to the huge crowd of parents - including over 90 of our own supporters!
We would like to thank all of the children for their excellent behaviour, the adults for accompanying the trip and the volunteers who came along too. The children had an incredible experience that we know will last a lifetime.
