Waitrose
Community Matters Project
In
April, Waitrose in East Sheen is supporting local
schools through its Community Matters project. Local
group School Food Matters has put forward three schools
to receive funding for growing projects - our school is
one of them, so please - this April, shop at Waitrose in
East Sheen and remember to ask for your green tokens.
The more tokens in the School Food Matters box, the more
funding we get for growing projects. |

New Build Plans
 Darell
Primary School is due to have a building project
undertaken to bring our specialist provision for pupils
with moderate and severe learning needs downstairs and
develop a new main entrance.
Permission for this development was granted in February
2011, following consultation with the local community,
and hopefully work may start as soon as April. The
intention is to complete the specialist provision in
time for it to be in use for the start of the next
academic year in September 2011 and the new main
entrance completed by December 2011.As a result of this
project some of our internal spaces will be reorganised
and additional benefits will include a new food
technology area, new welfare space, additional corridor
into the junior playground, dedicated studio space, new
reception toilets and some alternative storage
facilities.
Work on this development is due to take place during
this academic year and information will be provided to
the school community on progress. |

Ian Whybrow, author of
"Harry and the Dinosaur" books visits Darell.
The children were thrilled to meet the acclaimed author
of "Harry and the Bucketful of Dinosaurs"; Ian Whybrow!
All the children, from Nursery through to year 6, were
entertained all day with stories, pictures and jokes,
and for the older children, tips on how to become a real
author. Lines of children queued enthusiastically to get
their own copies of Ian's books signed. Everyone agreed
that it was an enjoyable day for all!

Maths Mountain
 Parent
helpers have been helping children achieve the Maths
Mountain Challenge, a series of tasks and activities
designed to rise achievement and enthusiasm for maths.
Each child will work with a helper once a week on these
tasks. As children "climb" each mountain (Richmond Hill,
Scafell Pike, Ben Nevis, Mont Blanc and Mount Everest),
they will get special praise and a certificate in
assembly.
Mountain climbing success will follow. |

Netball
On 3rd March our netball team went to play against St
Elizabeth's. We played one league match and one friendly
match. We all had a great time.
League report (by Jordan):
Eve, Jordan, Ryan, Yasser, Eddie, Wenzde and
Jennifer were all in the league match. Eddie scored a
fantastic goal in the third quarter, but it was too late
and we lost 3 - 1 to St Elizabeth's. Everyone on the
team tried their hardest. Thank you to all of our
supporters and to Miss Fox and Ms Lane for training us.
Friendly report (by Iman):
The second match was the friendly match. The
referee blew the whistle and the match started. Iman,
Ryan, Yasser, Jennifer, Amina, Cameron and Maya were
playing. The first goal was scored by Iman in the first
quarter, and the second goal was also scored by Iman in
the second quarter. Ryan scored two goals and Yasser
scored one goal in the third quarter. We played our best
and won 5 - 0. Finally we cheered for each
other and went home. Thank you to Miss Fox and Ms Lane
for coaching and thank you to all of our supporters.
