Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.
You may have noticed that Rosie has been wearing a new coat! Following a successful 'assessment' last week, Rosie is now our qualified Dog Mentor companion.
We are really excited to see more of Rosie in school, particularly helping in and around classrooms and other areas.
Well done Rosie!
This morning was filled with excitement (and a few nerves!) as our Year 6 pupils set off on their much-anticipated residential trip to Cumulus Outdoors in beautiful Swanage, Dorset.
Armed with backpacks, sleeping bags, and plenty of snacks, the children were buzzing with energy as they boarded the coach, waving cheerful goodbyes to the rest of the school. For many, this is the longest they’ll have spent away from home, and it marks a big step toward independence and the end of their primary school journey.
The week ahead promises a packed schedule of outdoor adventures and team challenges — from kayaking to bushcraft, mackerel fishing, and beach games. Set close to the Jurassic Coast, Cumulus provides the perfect setting for learning new skills, building resilience, and strengthening friendships, all while soaking up the sea air.
It’s not just about the activities — the residential also gives our pupils valuable time to develop confidence, teamwork, and self-belief, and of course, to make memories that will last long after the tents have been packed away.
We’ll be updating parents throughout the week with photos and highlights as the adventure unfolds. Be sure to keep an eye on SeeSaw for snapshots of the fun.
A huge thank you to the staff team accompanying the children — your support, energy, and enthusiasm are what make trips like this so special.
Wishing Year 6 an amazing week full of laughter, challenge, and discovery. Go and make the most of every moment — we can’t wait to hear all about it!
This week, your children may have noticed a new furry addition in the school. Rosie has loved getting to know the children and been familiarising herself with lots of new smells and sounds. You will see more of Rosie over the coming weeks so please do say hello if you see her.
We are so proud of our 11 swimmers who represented the school in this year's swimming gala which took place at Sevenoaks leisure centre.
On 11th June, we welcomed parents in to school to discuss online safety. We considered how we can keep our children safe and happy when interacting online.
Please find below a copy of the PowerPoint which was used during this session.

Week 2: A Sports-Filled Success for Crockham Hill! 🏃♀️🏅🌟
Week 2 was full of energy and excitement at Crockham Hill School, with sports taking centre stage across the week. One of the highlights was a fantastic cross-country event hosted by Hever School, where Mrs Gibson proudly led a team of 24 children from Years 3, 4, 5 and 6.
The event saw our Year 3 and 4 runners tackling a 1,000m course, while the Year 5 and 6 athletes took on a more demanding 1,500m challenge. With rolling hills, grassy stretches and the ever-changing British weather, the course tested everyone’s stamina and spirit — and our pupils absolutely rose to the occasion.
Every single child gave their very best effort, showing great perseverance and sportsmanship throughout. It was wonderful to see them cross the finish line with determination in their strides and big smiles on their faces — a true testament to their positive attitudes and training.
We’re incredibly proud of all who took part. Whether they were running, cheering each other on, or giving high fives at the end, they represented Crockham Hill with pride, enthusiasm and team spirit.
A huge thank you to Mrs Gibson for organising the event and supporting our runners on the day — and to Hever School for hosting such a well-run and enjoyable competition.
We look forward to more sporting opportunities this term and celebrating the achievements of our young athletes!
