• Monday 10 March 2025 Chestnut's World Book Day Yesterday was an exciting day for all of us, as we celebrated World Book Day! We had the incredible opportunity to meet the author Ian Macdonald, who shared some fascinating insights about his writing process and inspirations. After that, we got creative and designed our own front book covers, thinking about what would catch a reader's eye. To wrap things up, we enjoyed listening to different books being read aloud to us, which sparked our imaginations and maybe even inspired us to pick up a new story. All in all, it was a fun-filled day dedicated to the magic of reading!

Well done Northiam Choir, Miss Benhamou was super proud of all of you!

• Monday 2 December 2024 Year 3 Horse Riding The Year 3's had a fantastic time visiting the riding centre on Wednesday, despite the shocking weather. The children had a great time learning to groom and care for the horses. They all so enjoyed about the horses diet what they like, and what is safe for then to eat. All the children also enjoyed a ride on the horses and ponies. Each child received a rosette for being brave and getting on the horse. Many thanks to Ten Oaks Equestrian Centre in Hawkhurst, who facilitated this wonderful trip.
