On Friday 12th January, Ranelagh will be having a Nursery Open Day for all prospective parents and children from 9:00 to 10:00 AM. You are cordially invited to attend, to witness firsthand what a wonderful place Ranelagh Primary is. Beginning school is an exciting event for you and your child, and it won’t be long before your child will be starting with us at Ranelagh Primary School.

There will be lots of new things to learn and of course you will want to ensure that your child is well prepared for this important event. At Ranelagh Primary School our motto is `Be the Best You Can Be’ and this value is the foundation of everything we do. We strive to provide an environment and curriculum that underpins our ethos and our 5R values – Respectful, Resilient, Remarkable, Responsible and Right Choices.

On Friday, along with the entire nation, Ranelagh raised awareness for Children in Need. Dressed to the hilt in spotty clothes and dotted outfits, the staff and children alike enjoyed contributing to such a noble cause. Children in Need, A BBC charity, maintains a vision that every child across the UK should have a childhood which is safe, happy, secure and allows them to reach their potential. 

The librarians in our school play a vital role and have become a very important part of team Ranelagh! Each and every day, they give up their own playtimes and lunches to help run not only the school library but also the 100 Books Library located in the front foyer.

TES (Times Educational Supplement), after consulting primary school teachers up and down the country, comprised a list of the top 100 must-read books that all children should read before leaving primary school (for the list in full click here) and Ranelagh, in keeping with this initiative, created a ‘100 Books Library’ of our own in the front foyer. Every playtime and lunchtime, children from across the school come in to choose a book, often recommended by our wonderful librarians, and they read them either at school or at home.

This half term, as a thank you for all the hard work that our librarians do, they were treated to a very special visit to the Stratford Library where they joined children from other schools in learning about Jeff Kinney, the world famous author of the ‘Diary of a Wimpy Kid’ books. They enjoyed learning how to illustrate the main character from the story as well as take part in the various book quizzes, testing their knowledge. The event was not only informative but great fun!

On Tuesday 14^th November, at 9:30 AM and 2:00 PM, Ranelagh Primary School is having an Open Day for all prospective parents and children. You are invited to attend either session, to see just what a wonderful place Ranelagh Primary is. Beginning school is an exciting event for you and your child, and it won’t be long before your child will be starting with us at Ranelagh Primary School.

Children fom Ranelagh's very own Shakespeare club delivered a magnificent performance of The Tempest at Stratford Circus on Monday 6^th November. All of the children were commended for their mature rendition of the classic Shakespearean play as well as their excellent inference. A tall order, The Tempest is a story chalked full of comedy, acts of betrayal, ill treatment, magical arts and revenge.

Ranelagh has been recognised for all of the hard work we have done as a school to ensure safe, healthy and sustainable school travel with an accreditation from Transport for London.
