Upcoming Events
Parents Evening - Wednesday 25th March 2026
Parents’ Evening will take place on Wednesday 25th March. On this day the school will close early for pupils at 1:15pm so that staff can prepare for the afternoon and evening meetings.
If your child is already booked into an after-school club on a Wednesday, they will be supervised from 1:00pm until 4:10pm as usual. However, if your child normally attends a club but you would prefer to collect them at 1:15pm, please inform the School Office.
For families whose children are not normally booked into a Wednesday club, we have created an option on the MyChildAtSchool (MCAS) app for that day only. Parents can pay a small ad-hoc fee of £2 which will allow their child either to:
- Remain in school until 3:10pm, or
- Join Homework Club and be collected at 4:10pm.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation in helping us ensure the day runs smoothly.

World Book Day- Twisted Tales Theme - Friday 6th March 2026
World Book Day Celebration – Thank You!
A huge thank you to all of our parents and children at Thames View Junior School for making World Book Day such a fantastic and memorable day. We were blown away by the incredible creativity in the costumes – it was wonderful to see so many imaginative characters come to life!
The children enjoyed a range of exciting activities, including reading, storytelling, role play, and creative writing. The day was full of energy, fun, and a shared love of books.
We are so proud of the effort everyone put in to celebrate reading and to share their favourite stories. Thank you again to our families for your support in making this day so special.
We hope everyone enjoyed the celebration as much as we did and that it inspires even more reading at home!
Parent and Child Cooking Activity Afternoon - Wednesday 11th February 2026
On Wednesday 11th February, we were delighted to welcome parents and carers into school for our Parent and Child Cooking Activity Afternoon. The session gave families the opportunity to step into the kitchen together, with children excused from their usual afternoon lessons so they could take part in this special shared experience. There was a wonderful buzz in the room as families worked side by side, chopping, mixing and frying while learning new cooking skills and enjoying some valuable time together. We even had a visit from the Ofsted Inspector, who wanted to join in too!
During the session, families created Spicy Korean Faux Chicken, packed with flavour, alongside a delicious cheese bread – a crispy fried flatbread that was a big hit with both children and adults. All ingredients and resources were provided, allowing everyone to fully get involved and enjoy the hands-on experience.
It was fantastic to see so many smiles, teamwork and enthusiasm throughout the afternoon. We look forward to welcoming even more families next time – details about our next cooking session will be sent out soon, so keep an eye out and be sure to sign up quickly as spaces are limited!

Jeans for Genes Day - Friday 19th September 2025
Dear Parents/ Carers,
Exciting News! Jeans for Genes Week is back this September, and it is fast approaching!
Thames View Junior School is fundraising for children & families with genetic conditions. We ask for your support, please donate £1 (or more if you wish) to the cause and make a direct impact on the lives of children with genetic condition.
Why should you donate?
Because every gene, every thread, and every £ counts when it comes to helping those in need. Let’s be the change we want to see in the world!
Your support really does matter.
* Genetic conditions are the biggest killer of children under 14
* It affects 1 in 10 families in the UK
* There are over 3.5 million people in the UK living with a genetic condition
* There are around 7,000 different kinds of genetic conditions, all with very different needs. This creates complexities & many small but vital groups find it difficult to get conventional funding
Jeans for Genes helps to change that.
It raises awareness, consolidates support and distributes funding to community projects at the heart of the issue.
This year’s Jeans for Genes Days will run from Mon 15 – Sun 21 September.
YOUR support is vital and every £1 matters.
There are different ways you can donate:- Check out the donation in the payments tab here on MyChildAtSchool (MCAS) app to contribute!

Let’s create a ripple effect of positivity and support. Together, we can make a huge difference in the lives of these brave kids and their families. Your kindness and generosity can truly change the world!
