A very well done to these children!
Christmas Classics have welcomed the children in each morning this week – top of the popularity scale seemed to be Chris de Burgh’s Class, A Spaceman Came Travelling.
The children did a brilliant job contributing to our UKS2 WW2 Christmas Presentation assembly, I think, and it was lovely to see such a big audience supporting them. A really special way to end a term-long topic.
Christmas cards, parties and activities have dominated our week, but we have also completed a short writing unit on the WW1 Christmas Truce of 1914. The children were given a choice of genre to write about it and really enjoyed a bit of freedom in their writing.
We did manage to hold an intra-school netball tournament, following our unit – we should find out the victors in Friday’s Celebration assembly.
And we also revealed to the children in Years 3 to 5 that our next production (at Eastertime) will be Bugsy Malone! We are super excited and have given out lots and lots of audition information sheets. Do encourage your child to get involved in this little venture - it's great fun!
Many thanks for your kind gifts and cards this Christmas Season – and I hope you all have a really lovely fun-filled holiday.
Yours,
Mrs Adrienne Amos
