The pupils explored these artists’ work through rich sensory experiences such as milk painting and sculpture. They then used these explorations to create their own fantastic response pieces. The week culminated in a beautiful exhibition, celebrating the pupils’ creativity, curiosity and hard work – [here](https://youtu.be/QE6REPq8pL0) is a video of some of the highlights from the pupils’ work which we hope you will enjoy. **Coffee Mornings** Upcoming coffee mornings on Tuesdays include a sleep clinic with CAMHs, a meeting with the Camden Short Breaks team, a workshop with Occupational Therapists on how to support your child’s play, as well as a meeting with Senior Leads to share ideas on how we can make the school even better. We hope to see you there. ![](https://swisscottage.camden.sch.uk/images/images/Coffee_Mornings_14.11.25.png) **Next Week**![](https://swisscottage.camden.sch.uk/images/images/WCD_20.11.25.png) Next week on 20th November we will be celebrating World Children's Day - We're encouraging the world to respect children’s rights. Please help us celebrate by wearing something blue on the day. Yours Sincerely, Syra Sowe Principal (Interim) [Click here to download a printable version of this letter.](https://swisscottage.camden.sch.uk/files/SCSNewsletter141125.pdf) [ SCS Newsletter 07/11/2025 ](https://swisscottage.camden.sch.uk/news/2025-11-07-scs-newsletter-07-11-2025) [ SCS Newsletter 21/11/2025 ](https://swisscottage.camden.sch.uk/news/2025-11-21-scs-newsletter-21-11-2025) ### [Latest News](https://swisscottage.camden.sch.uk/news) [![Image of SCS Newsletter 06/11/2026](https://files.schudio.com/swiss-cottage-school/imagecache/150x150c/news/SCS-Newsletter.png)](https://swisscottage.camden.sch.uk/news/2026-11-06-scs-newsletter-06-11-2026) #### [SCS Newsletter 06/11/2026](https://swisscottage.camden.sch.uk/news/2026-11-06-scs-newsletter-06-11-2026) 6 November 2026 [![Image of End of Half Term Newsletter](https://files.schudio.com/swiss-cottage-school/imagecache/150x150c/news/End_of_Half_Term_Newsletter_Banner.png)](https://swisscottage.camden.sch.uk/news/2026-10-23-end-of-half-term-newsletter) #### [End of Half Term Newsletter](https://swisscottage.camden.sch.uk/news/2026-10-23-end-of-half-term-newsletter) 23 October 2026 [![Image of SCS Newsletter 16/10/2026](https://files.schudio.com/swiss-cottage-school/imagecache/150x150c/news/SCS-Newsletter.png)](https://swisscottage.camden.sch.uk/news/2026-10-16-scs-newsletter-16-10-2026) #### [SCS Newsletter 16/10/2026](https://swisscottage.camden.sch.uk/news/2026-10-16-scs-newsletter-16-10-2026) 16 October 2026 - [![OFSTED](https://files.schudio.com/swiss-cottage-school/images/menu/OFSTED_OUTSTANDING-70.png)](https://reports.ofsted.gov.uk/provider/25/100096) - [![Rights Respecting Schools](https://files.schudio.com/swiss-cottage-school/images/menu/UNICEF-70.png)](https://www.unicef.org.uk/rights-respecting-schools/) - [![Ed Tech 50](https://files.schudio.com/swiss-cottage-school/images/menu/EDTECH50-70.png)](http://www.ednfoundation.org/wp-content/uploads/EDTECH-50-SCHOOLS-2019_compressed.pdf) - [![T4 Global Showcase School](https://files.schudio.com/swiss-cottage-school/images/menu/T4-WEW-70.png)](https://t4.education/) - [![Music Mark](https://files.schudio.com/swiss-cottage-school/images/menu/MUSIC-MARK-70.png)](https://www.musicmark.org.uk/) - [![Quality in Careers ](https://files.schudio.com/swiss-cottage-school/images/menu/Quality_in_Careers_Standard_70.png)](https://www.qualityincareers.org.uk/) - [![Eco Schools](https://files.schudio.com/swiss-cottage-school/images/menu/ECO-SCHOOLS-SILVER-70.png)](https://www.keepbritaintidy.org/ecoschools/) - [![Healthy Schools Silver](https://files.schudio.com/swiss-cottage-school/images/menu/Healthy_Schools_Silver_-70.png)](https://www.london.gov.uk/what-we-do/health/healthy-schools-london/awards//) - [![Quality Mark Gold](https://files.schudio.com/swiss-cottage-school/images/menu/PD-QUALITY-MARK-70.png)](http://www.lcll.org.uk/uploads/3/0/9/3/3093873/faqs_aug_12.pdf) - [![Sport England](https://files.schudio.com/swiss-cottage-school/images/menu/SPORT-ENGLAND-70.png)](https://www.sportengland.org/) - ![SIMS](https://files.schudio.com/swiss-cottage-school/images/menu/SIMS-70.png) - [![Centre of Excellence](https://files.schudio.com/swiss-cottage-school/images/menu/YE-CENTRE-70.png)](https://www.young-enterprise.org.uk/) - [![fmsis](https://files.schudio.com/swiss-cottage-school/images/menu/FMSIS-70.png)](https://www.gov.uk/topic/schools-colleges-childrens-services/school-college-funding-finance) - ![TIPiC](https://files.schudio.com/swiss-cottage-school/images/menu/TIPiC_70.png) - [![DFE](https://files.schudio.com/swiss-cottage-school/images/menu/DfE-70.png)](https://www.compare-school-performance.service.gov.uk/) ### Contact Us **Swiss Cottage School** 80 Avenue Road London NW8 6HX Tel: 020 7681 8080 (8am-4:15pm) ### Useful Links - [Term Dates](https://swisscottage.camden.sch.uk/parents/termdates) - [SCS Charity](https://swisscottage.camden.sch.uk/support-us/fundraising) - [Card & Design Shop](https://employme-card-design.myshopify.com/) - [Privacy Notice](https://swiss-cottage-school.schudio.com/files/documents/policies/Privacy_Notice_Swiss_Cottage_School_Organisation_21-22.pdf) - [X](https://twitter.com/swisscottagesch) © Copyright 2020–2026 Swiss Cottage School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://swisscottage.camden.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
