Last week we held our monthly #LittleHares session, and this month's theme was Music Therapy. Led by our highly specialist Music Therapist, the session involved musical activities to encourage the babies and toddlers to engage their listening and communication skills.

Last week we welcomed visitors from the Norwegian school, The Briskeby School. Our Sixth Formers gave them a tour around the school including Carpentry, Childcare, Beauty, Psychology, French, and ICT.

Recently we held our Head Prefect hustings event! Sixth Form students prepared presentations on why they would be a good fit for the role of Head Prefect. Results will be shared in the Easter break. Good luck everyone🤞

Last week was British Science Week and, led by Mrs van der Zwaluw, the Primary Pupils enjoyed investigating ‘Time’, including activities such as making sand timers or water clocks and timed biscuit-dunking experiments to find out which was the strongest biscuit!

Some of our Primary pupils represented Mary Hare at a Tag Rugby tournament at Newbury RFC. They demonstrated rugby values of teamwork, respect, discipline, sportsmanship and had an enjoyable time competing against other local schools. Well done everyone 👏

Lots of students have been enjoying Red Nose-based activities today, including our Year 7s, who have been making RED cabbage indicator in Science, and our Primary pupils have been playing games and had a cake sale!

In today’s carpentry lesson, Sixth Form students were completing their assessments using power tools. They have used a router which is used to make perfect finishing edges and corners. They also used a sander to smooth the surface of the wood. 📷Photos taken by student, Marni.

Our Primary pupils have been enjoying extended celebrations of this year's #WorldBookDay . Yesterday our Sixth Formers studying Childcare joined the pupils as they enjoyed a day of book-related activities, and today they have dressed in their favourite characters!

Last week, students from our Secondary School enjoyed a day of competition at the Aquatic Centre in London, representing Mary Hare School against other deaf schools in the Panathlon Challenge swimming competition. For some of the students this was their first time representing the school.

It was an honour for #KennetDance pupils to be invited to perform in the 'Ignite the Stage' show Arlington Arts Centre. This showcase exhibited the high level of local talent but, more importantly, helped raise funds for the worthy Mary Hare School Foundation: tinyurl.com/5588xrfs

A huge well done to our Primary pupils who, last week, took part in the Panathlon Challenge swimming competition at the Aquatic Centre in the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in London, and came first! A fantastic event where they were able to compete against other children from deaf schools.

In the lead up to this weekend's Chinese New Year celebrations, our Sixth Formers who are currently studying Childcare, and also take part in the Cooking Club, led a fantastic session for our Primary pupils where they made (and ate!) some delicious dumplings.🐉 #ChineseNewYear2024
