Welcome to our school. Our aspirations for every child who attends Victory Primary school are summed up in our school mission statement, vision, and motto.
Mission statement: At Victory School, we aim to create a welcoming, safe and caring environment, where all relationships are based on kindness. Children have respect for themselves, other people, and the school environment.
We believe by working together we can achieve attitudes and behaviors which impact positively on every child’s learning experience, happiness, and well-being.
School Vision: Every pupil to become active, confident, and happy learners, who intrinsically strives to reach their academic, social and spiritual potential, whilst respecting themselves and others.
All staff fully embrace their roles and responsibilities within the school, maintaining high expectations, pride, respect, and a positive purpose. We look forward to working together with you every day to achieve our shared goals.
The Golden Rules: Always aim high, try your best and make good choices. Always show respect to each other by being kind, polite, caring, and listen to each other. Always follow instructions given by any member of staff. Always look after our school’s property and other people’s. Always play nicely and share.
We have looked at homes from the past. In our artwork, we used water paints to make our own homes and we used paper to make our own Origami house. Our class trip was to the Geffrye Museum where we looked at different objects from the past, e.g. video cassettes, Walkmans, and ways to light your home – past and present day.
In Year 2, children have been learning all about adventure stories and wrote a letter to one of the characters about their visit to the floating Iceberg.
In Year 3 we have been learning about Britain in the time from Stone Age to Iron Age and also about Growing Around the Globe – including a special visit from one of our mums who is from Russia.
Year 5 learned about the ancient Kingdom of Benin. They examined their bronze plaques and statues as if they were archaeologists uncovering facts about history. We designed statues using body proportion, inspired by the statues of Benin’s Obas (Rulers). We had to manipulate the foil to position our figures.
