Reception, Year 1 and 2 had a special treat last Wednesday

when two actors from Rose Bruford College performed their

play, How High. From fairy tale giants, to the tallest buildings,

from the highest of high jumps, to simply growing up, the playexplored children's relationship to the world through the notion

of height. It was the fourth collaboration between Bexley

Borough Council and Rose Bruford College's homegrown

children's theatre company Theatre Jemilda, as part of their

response to 2012 and the Cultural Olympiad. Faster, Stronger,

Higher (the Olympic motto) was the inspiration for much of the

work so far. This lively piece of music-theatre supports the

English, Art and Design, Music and Maths areas of the Primary

Curriculum, as well as offering children an opportunity toconsider their place in what is often a very grown-up world. The

children (and the teachers!) had a great time, and all were

chatting about the play for days to follow! Many thanks to Miss

hope for organising this event.

Brampton Primary is a restorative school where the initial response to conflict is to

find a solution where things are put right, the victims needs are met whilst also

meeting the needs of the wrong doer and meet all the schools responsibilities.

SUMMER SPORTS AT BRAMPTON

Brampton BulletinPage 2

FOOTBALL: The girls football team played in a BexleyTournament and won their first two games, 5-0 and 2-0but lost their second two. The girls played very well and

we were all proud of them. They behaved well and in asporting manner. The organiser said we had some verygood players! Many thanks to Mr Capelli for coaching theteam.

FOOTBALL REPORT FROM Aaliyeah Weise Forbes 5C:The Brampton Girls football team were anxious as theywere soon to play their end of the league match on Saturday. They had been doing particularlywell and had won most of their matches despite being new to the league. The team was madeup of an unlikely bunch of characters: Francesca, Libby, two Ellies Aaliyeah, Patsy, Taylor, andalso the fantastic goalkeeper Charlotte. The team were so nervous about their forthcomingmatch and they could also sense that the team coach was too. Mo was not the usually nervoustype but he new that winning the league was important to all of the girls and would be a goodindication of all his hard work that he had put into training the team. The match was only 5hours away but the girls did not stop practices until the final 3 hours. After Patsy, Aaliyeah, Tay-lor went off to Thorpe Park. They got the train there but they packed their clothes neatly. Theywere in high spirits they went on lots of rides nevertheless they just noticed they had an hour tomake the most difficult match of the year. They made it back in time but youll never guesswhat? Tyler, Ted, Conor, Can and Dylan V were there. Also they won! They were so cheerful allof them had a celebration spraying water, dropping on the floor, some were even crying. Mosaid You lot did brilliant today well done. After that all of them went back to Thorpe Park.

SWIMMING REPORT FROM Danielle Hills 6M: Lawrence Goff, George and Danielle Hills, all

swam in a Bexley School Swimming Gala representing the school. George swam two races , frontcrawl and backstroke. He came 1st in both races in the heats, but in the finals he came 2nd inthe front crawl and 1st in the backstroke. For his front crawl he got a silver medal and in hisbackstroke he didnt get a medal or trophy because he false started. But luckily he is still goingto Crystal Palace. Lawrence swam in the same races as George, front crawl and backstroke. Inthe heats he came 4th in the backstroke and 6th in the front crawl. He made it to the finals anddid really well for his age. Unfortunately he did not make it to Crystal Palace. I swam in thebreaststroke and front crawl; I came 1st in breaststroke and 2nd in the front crawl for the heats,and in the finals I came 1st in the breaststroke and 4th in the front crawl so I am going to Crys-tal Palace for the breaststroke. I got a trophy for my breaststroke in the finals as well.

KWIK CRICKET REPORT FROM Survin Appanah and Toby Smith in 6S: Brampton schoolgot picked to go to Bexley Grammar for a Kwik Cricket tournament, to qualify for the final atDartfordians cricket club. Mrs Stewart picked her team for the qualifiers and this team was Toby,Survin, Jamie, Mark, Sorrel, Nikita and Leyla.This team went tothe cricket at Bexley Grammar school and Toby lead the way.We started off with a close game with Danson but we pulledwith a win. Then we won our second game which was mucheasier. After we played St Stephens but we lost by a couple ofpoints. Disappointingly we lost on runs against Danson. Luckilythere were enough spaces for us so we qualified for the finals at

Dartfordians. We all felt nervous as we were playing last years

KWIK CRICKET Continued: winners and the favouritesOld Bexley. Even though we lost wefelt relieved we got the best team out the way. Then it was straight forward. In our third gameagainst Trinity school we did not feel the umpire was up to standard because he did not let ususe our own bat which was allowed under Kwik Cricket regulations which lead us to lose. Butwe didnt let it get to us. Unfortunately we came third in our group but it wasnt over. We gotput up against St Stephens for 10-11 and it repeated what happened in the first match. So weplayed for 11-12 and we succeeded in winning in style by forty points. So out of 16 teams in thefinal we came 11 but in the borough we came 11 out of 60.Many thanks to Mrs Stewart for managing and organising the team.

Our New Managed Learning Environment

Last week Miss Cross made a presentation to a small

group of parents showing them our new ManagedLearning Environment (MLE) called DB Primary. It will be

used as an on-line teaching and learning resource, bothinside and outside school. All pupils and staff have been

given their own account and its use is increasing asstaff, children and parents become familiar with it.

Please visit the DB Primary website,

www.brampton.bexley.dbprimary.com and use the log inbox on the left hand side where you can see your childs

homepage which may contain tasks for your child to

complete, forums to contribute to and various links torelevant educational resources to support your childs

learning at home. It is also a way to complete homework

using ICT and send it into school. The parents who were

able to attend found the presentation interesting andmany commented on how their children are using it

already. Many thanks to Miss Cross for her time. Any

queries please feel free to see her or your class teacher.
