The performances of the infant Nativity on Friday were lovely. The children sang and acted beautifully. They were so clear and loud—well done everyone!
Thank you to Mr Wells-Cole who came into school on Wednesday to accompany the children on the piano. We sang a range of carols and Christmas songs. It was a delightful festive experience for all of us.
On Wednesday, we all enjoyed a delicious Christmas lunch. A big thankyou to our cook, Antoinette, for her splendid efforts.
This afternoon, the children have had great fun at their Christmas parties. They
enjoyed games, dancing and chocolate treats.
Tomorrow, children may come to school in home clothes and bring in a small toy or game, that does not make excessive noise, to share with their friends. No phones or ipads please.
A reminder school and nursery will close early tomorrow. Please collect nursery,
reception and years 1 & 2 ~ 1.50-2.00pm, and years 3, 4, 5 & 6 ~ 2.00-2.10pm. If you have children in both age groups, please collect at the earlier time. The school buses will depart at 2pm.
