Bexley Children's University

We are thrilled to share the news that Sherwood Park Primary School is joining the London South East Children’s University. Being a part of the Children’s University is an opportunity to reward children for taking part in a huge range of extra-curricular activities and can help to develop their love of learning. We are one of a growing number of Bexley primary schools recognising the positive benefit that joining the Children’s University brings to our children.

Healthy Schools London

In November, we were awarded the Bronze Healthy Schools London award, sponsored by the Mayor of London, for our 'outstanding contribution to improve wellbeing' in our school. We are dedicated to helping our children learn about their health and develop their motivation and self-respect to make healthy choices. Well done to Mrs Walton for working hard with the children to achieve the award. We are now working on getting the silver award.

Dear Parents and Carers, Thank you to everyone who supported the recent 'Raisin Challenge' which was organised by the Friends Of Sherwood Park group. It raised a wonderful total of £347.92 which is a brilliant start to our fundraising goal of purchasing 30 ipads for the school. We are going to keep a running total over the next couple of months and as different events raise money we will add the totals up so that you can see us getting closer to our overall goal. The two classes that raised the most amount of money in the two key stages and have won themselves extra golden time this week are KS1 Winner Cherry Class who raised £73.39 KS2 Winners Sycamore Class who raised £24.16 Thank you once again for all the support.
