Year 6 pupils from both classes enjoyed an exciting visit to the Science Museum in South Kensington. During the trip, children explored interactive galleries, investigated forces, energy and engineering, and took part in hands-on activities that brought science to life.

Last week, both Year 6 classes took part in an exciting visit to the Emirates Stadium, home of Arsenal Football Club. During our visit, the children had the opportunity to participate in a range of football and sports activities, developing their teamwork and physical skills. We then toured the impressive stadium, including a special look inside the players’ changing rooms and the Directors Box seating areas with a fantastic view of the pitch.

Our Year 1, 2 and 3 children delighted audiences with a wonderful Winter Show, performed three times — once for the whole school and twice for parents. The performances were full of joy, confidence and festive spirit, and were warmly received by everyone who attended.

Both Year 6 classes, Iroko and Jacaranda, took part in a unique two-day art project last week, exploring the history and artistic traditions of the Benin Bronzes. Building on their earlier learning in humanities, pupils created their own artworks inspired by the rich heritage of the Benin Kingdom.

Pupils from Richard Cobden Primary School took part in Camden’s annual Takeover Challenge on 21 November 2025 at the Crowndale Centre.
Our school focused on Online Safety, with children sharing clear and thoughtful ideas about how young people can stay safe, responsible and confident online.

Our Year 6 classes, Jacaranda and Iroko, recently visited the British Museum to explore the fascinating Benin Bronzes. The trip allowed the children to extend their knowledge from lessons at school and to connect it with their writing project, “Children of the Benin Kingdom.”

The exhibition gave pupils the opportunity to see the incredible craftsmanship of the Benin artists and to learn more about the rich and mysterious history of the Kingdom of Benin. The children were amazed by the detail and beauty of the bronzes, especially those showing interactions between the Benin people and Portuguese traders.
