Christmas Jumper Day and Christingle


Everyone dressed in a Christmas jumper and our Christingle was very colourful!  Mrs M doesn't like dressing up but really enjoyed taking part - no more Baa Humbug from me!!

We took a whole school jumper photo


The Christingle service is very magical (although a bit chaotic!)
Our singing was wonderful as always!.

Celebrations 9.12.16



As part of our celebrations assemblies I am telling the Christmas story from the point of view of the people in the story.  So far the stories of Mary, Angel Gabriel and a normal angel have been told.  The children are really enjoying this different way of telling the Christmas Story.  We are also lighting our Advent Wreath - reverend Lilian visited us on Wednesday to tell us what it all meant.


Daniel Y2 for increased concentration and progress in reading comprehension and writing.  Great Daniel - keep it up!  Jack Y1 for improved reading comprehension and writing and a super retelling of Mog's Calamity Christmas!  You showed this to me Jack and got a Headteacher sticker for it because it was so good! 


Our volleyball team - they achieved great results.  Brilliant everyone!
