Frobel Independent School

📚✏️ Attention parents! The countdown begins as our Key Stage 2 students gear up to showcase their knowledge and skills in the upcoming school tests. Let's cheer them on as they embark on this exciting journey of growth and learning!

Benchball

On Friday 26th January, students from FIS took part in a game of Benchball! This is a fun and engaging team sport that can be played by all ages and abilities. It was a big success and we look forward to playing another game!

I was absolutely thrilled and delighted today to see Year 7 in a Maths lesson working and teaching themselves totally independently. They were pushing and challenging each other with some difficult topics and the confidence by which they worked together shows this is a common way they can work and learn off of each other.

Many congratulations Year 7. You are an absolute asset to this school!

Parents join their children to sit in on GCSE English lesson as part of revision prep!

Time-travelling with Y11 parents:
FIS parents joined their sons and daughters as part of our revision and exam prep. They gained a glimpse into the English Language Skills class. Past and present collided as parents revisited their school days, understanding exam techniques, dissecting exam structures, and crafting paragraphs alongside their children.

Southend – Geography field trip

The students enjoyed their day at Southend completing their Geography Field Trip coursework. They investigated whether hard engineering is effective at protecting the coast.
The hypothesis concluded that this was the case at Southend.
They also enjoyed fish and chips by the sea followed by a nice treat.

Holocaust Memorial Day Assembly
With International Holocaust Memorial Day approaching on 27th January, a whole school Assembly was held on Wednesday 24th January to commemorate this event. Students were encouraged to reflect on this event, that cost the lives of 6 million European Jews between 1933-45 and posed to think of the overall value of human life.

Epilepsy Awareness

Year 9 and 10 have undergone a special session in PSHE on Epilepsy. This is a neurological condition that affects 600,000 people in the UK. Students in particular learnt what an epileptic seizure may look like and were taught what to do if they witness someone else having a seizure.

Panto Visit

On Wednesday 20th December, 23 students (and 3 lucky staff) went to visit the Kenneth More Theatre in Ilford, where they watched a performance of the pantomime Peter Pan. There were lots of boos, cheers, “Oh no I didn’t ... oh yes you did’s” and fun all around!
