Year 6 football team (with 1 Year 5 supporting) These boys took on Netley, Berrywood B and Berrywood C team and won ALL of their matches. They did not concede a goal. They were fantastic role modals for the school, traveling around Wildern sensible, showing good sportsman ship and being polite to the referees which were Wildern Sports students.

‘Jumping for joy’ is a thoroughly appropriate phrase, when describing the enthusiasm our children showed in encouraging and inspiring others to jump, hop and skip their way to fitness and enjoyment. We are very proud of Eva, Belle, Ollie, Charlotte, Teddy, Romina, Nellie and Holly who were exceptional in how they conducted themselves and ably led the skipping event at Wildern school for local children.

It was a pleasure to see so many Saint James pupils, past and present, attending the Remembrance Day service as members of the uniform groups, and we were extremely proud of our head boy and head girl, Matt and Maisie, who represented the school admirably in their respectful laying of the wreath. We would also like to extend a big ‘thank you’ to Mrs Hobbs, for accompanying the children to this very special service

After re-reading Alex Rider Chapter 4 –‘Double-0 Nothing’, we spoke about whether we feel we could tackle bootcamp training. The new recruits were put to the test and made to follow commands and complete an assault course.

When we returned to class, we chatted about the experience, how it made us feel and how Alex would go about describing it to Jack.

We consider every single member of Saint James Primary School, from the youngest child in Year R to the oldest child in Year 6, as well as all the staff, parents and VIPs. However, sometimes we’re blessed by the visit of VIPs who are recognisable in the wider community. We had the pleasure of welcoming Liz Jarvis, MP for Eastleigh, into school.

With our Climate Justice Art Exhibition taking place, it seemed wholly appropriate to invite Ms Jarvis, who has campaigned vociferously in Westminster on environmental issues, such a stopping sewage being dumped in our rivers. As she was due to be in Parliament on Tuesday, Liz kindly found space in her busy schedule to enjoy an exclusive preview of the exhibition.

Why is it that we have a picture with Miss Howell wearing a vicar’s cassock and seemingly being ordained by Reverend Linda? Last week, in Collective Worship, the children learned about the symbolism behind the clothing and colours of clothing that vicars wear. From the long, black cassock to the brightly coloured stoles, the children discovered why each item of clothing was chosen and the symbolism behind it (did you know that cassocks are based on the habit, a garment worn by people, nuns and monks, who have given their lives to God?).

We saw Bishop Rhiannon begin her ministry in Southampton with a Service of Welcome at St Michael the Archangel Church in Southampton.

Tradition dictates that our new bishop should receive a blessing from another important member of the church, usually another bishop.

So, who did Bishop Rhiannon choose to perform this important part of the service? The Bishop of Winchester? The Bishop of Salisbury? Or perhaps another important church leader? No. The important task was passed into the capable hands of children from Saint James Primary School!
