Temporary School Closure

Dear Parents, carers and staff
Castle water were carrying out works at the weekend and have left the school with no water pressure. We are therefore not able to open the school until the situation is resolved.
We apologise for the inconvenience and will update everyone as soon as we have more information from the engineers.
Many thanks for your cooperation and understanding
Mrs McNicholas
Headteacher

A recipe for success!
admin on: Our Lady of Muswell School Blog
At our first assembly of the year, children from year 1 to year 6 created a recipe for success. We thought about what we needed to have in our school cake to ensure success and happiness throughout the year. The children's wonderful imaginations shone through and they came up with a real recipe for success!
Congratulations Harry and Meghan!

Ben Wilson - Chewing Gum Man!
admin on: Our Lady of Muswell School Blog
Year 4's Art topic this half term is called "Which local artist lives near here?" and OLM are lucky enough to have one living just up the road- Ben Wilson Chewing Gum Man. Ben visited Year 4 this week and showed us all his work. He is pro-environment and helps make streets look colourful by painting patterns and pictures over old, flattened chewing gum on the pavements which are meaningful to the members of public in Muswell Hill. Year 4 walked around Muswell Hill looking at all his work and he even painted one for OLM situated near Planet Organic. Back at school, the children got to create their own chewing gum designs! What a fun day!

Sadia, Lara, William and Arun (Miss Merrell and Ms Matassini)
Children were invited to compete in a maths competition run with NRICH at the University of Cambridge. They tackled a never-before-seen mathematical problem. They worked really well as a team to try and solve 4 different problems in an hour and then present their findings.
Friendship fortnight
admin on: Our Lady of Muswell School Blog
The children at OLM have had a fantastic first week of friendship fortnight. They have been watching films based around being left out because of physical differences : Dumbo, Khumba and Wonder. The children then discussed the film and created some fantastic art work based around the themes. The digital leaders have also been busy asking children how they would react to different scenarios that might occur while on line. Video results to follow...
Across the school we have also been learning about the importance of resilience and how we need it to achieve challenging tasks.
Science demonstration
admin on: Our Lady of Muswell School Blog
If you heard any strange loud noises coming from the hall this week, there's nothing to worry about, key stage 2 were busy exploring the world of chemistry with the very lively Dr Szydlo. Children and teachers alike were wowed by a fantastic range of chemical reactions and changes including magical colour changes, disappearing water and even pyrotechnic scientific demonstrations. We will never think about science the same way again!
