• Year 3 visit Stonehenge

  Thu 05 Oct 2017
  On Tuesday 26th September, as part of their History topic on 'Changes in Britain from the Stone Age to the Iron Age' Year 3 visited Stonehenge. The visit brought to life all that the children had been learning in the History lessons about Stone Age and what an incredible feat of team work and engineering it was in constructing this site. Whilst walking around the monument the children got a real sense of the importance and significance of Stonehenge and the area surrounding it. The children were able to see the tools and methods used in the construction, displayed in the Exhibition Centre as well as an opportunity to explore the homes the Neolithic people.

• The West Lodge Roundhouse

  Thu 04 May 2017

  On Monday 24th April, West Lodge Primary School travelled back in time as they celebrated History Day. The day also marked the official opening of their Celtic roundhouse which has recently been built - Steve Gumble and his team from Harts of Oak led the building project which involved the children weaving willow and plastering the walls with a mixture of horse dung and lime!

  The building of the Celtic roundhouse is part of many projects the school is undertaking to further develop outdoor learning. Many guests were present at the special assembly which took place on the field by the roundhouse including: The Deputy Mayor – Margaret Davina, The Leader of Harrow Council – Sachin Shah, The Holder of Portfolio for Education – Christine Robson, School Improvement Partner – Brian Netto, The Chair of Governors – Gideon Adey and members of FOWLs (Friends of West Lodge).

  The project was funded by FOWLs – who work incredibly hard to raise funds to support the school. The children thoroughly enjoyed their day of history - dressing up as historical characters and participating in a variety of exciting activities including: Celtic storytelling, life in a Victorian classroom, Roman code breaking, writing in Egyptian hieroglyphs, being archaeologists and much more. Children at West Lodge commented that they always have so much fun learning about the past.

• SEWA Day

  Fri 04 Nov 2016

  Sewa involves performing an act of kindness without expectation of reward. It is performed selflessly and without ulterior motive. West Lodge has been awarded The Sewa Pioneers Award for its previous projects, and this year we continued to spread the message of Sewa.

  This year, each class completed a sewa project - a huge range of activities were carried out: children created bookmarks for the elderly; donated items to Banardos in Pinner; made cards and drew pictures for children in hospital; decorated plant pots and planted seeds and hosted elderly members of the community for an afternoon of tea and entertainment.

  Our next activity linked to Sewa will be another Knit Aid event on Friday 25th November, where we will be hosting a finger knitting workshop. If you are an expert knitter and are able to help out at the workshop during the afternoon of 25th November, please contact the school office.
