Pupils visit reconstructed Victorian classroom

Pupils at the Licensed Victuallers’ Junior School visited a reconstructed classroom at Reading Museum earlier this month to experience what life would have been like as a schoolchild in Victorian times.

Teacher Laura Rawlinson said, “The visit was a real eye opener - it made many of the children feel glad to really be at school in the present day!”

North Representative XI Football Team

The first ever North representative XI, pictured in their new kit kindly supplied by our football sponsor, Umbro.

Their first match against an experienced Crewe Alex Academy side ended in defeat but this was then followed up by a victory against Shrewsbury School.

New Residential Course

Delegates from ISA Schools recently attended a new residential course entitled "Empowering Senior Teachers to Support the Head".

The course was held at Sherfield School in Hook, Hants.

Licensed Victuallers' School hold Book Week

The Licensed Victuallers' School held their biggest ever Book Week during March. The theme this year was "The Great Outdoors" and pupils were issued with passports with "outdoors" characters to find out about.

Pupils also had the chance to meet authors and hopefully they will have been inspired to take part in the many events planned for the rest of the National Year of Reading.
