The KS2 Pantomime performance of Aladdin on Friday evening was a roaring success. The children excelled, thoroughly enjoying performing in front of their families. A special thankyou to the audience who really engaged, laughing and cheering at all of the jokes.
Thank you to all those who contributed to the collection at the infant Nativity for this year’s school charity, Prickly Pigs. A wonderful £53.71 was collected.

On Monday, we enjoyed our school Christmas lunch. Many thanks to our cook, Antoinette, who prepared a
delicious feast for us all!
This week, the children have also enjoyed Christmas parties, Christmas crafts and learnt about the Christmas story. Tomorrow, children may come to school in home clothes and bring a small toy or game, that does not make excessive noise, to share with their friends. No phones, ipads or other electronic
devices please.
