Creating a ‘Stand-Out’ school
Igniting a life-long love of learning
It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to The Vineyard School. Our school is nestled at the top of Richmond Hill and situated within stunning grounds. The Vineyard has been proudly educating children locally in Richmond for over 160 years, finding its final home on our current school site here on Friars Stile Road.
Yesterday, Pearl class went around the school to study the different plants in different areas. We saw a variety of plants on our site including holly, ivy, bluebells, nettles, other wild flowers and lots of trees!

Our KS2 choir joined forces today with other primary schools from Richmond borough in @richmondmusictrust's Primary Singing Festival. They worked really hard all term to learn the songs and totally nailed their performances under their brilliant choir director Jane. We particularly loved the spatially separated song "I'm A Star" where children in different parts of the theatre sang different lines to create a very interesting audio effect. Just like in St Mark's Basilica in Renaissance times :)

Vineyard Recommended Reads
We are always on the lookout for new authors that they children enjoy reading and this week the author Pamela Butchart. Her books are funny and are similar but a level up to the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series.
Defne and Silas in Sapphire recommend:
The Spy Who Loved School Dinners by Pamela Butchart
Reading Age: year 2 - 5
Genre: mystery, comedy & illustration
If your child has enjoyed learning about a topic in history, geography, science or any other subject then look at this website to find books linked to their learning: https://www.booksfortopics.com/booklists/books-by-age-and-year-group/ks2/
The holidays can be a fantastic time to deepen interests or read around a topic ready to come back to school with a wealth of knowledge.
