Week Ending 21 December 2018

Christmas Events
Thank you to all who attended our annual Nativity Service in the Church on Tuesday. The singing was magnificent and the children in Ladybirds’ class made a lovely tableaux scene.

We have had our annual Christmas lunch (a huge ‘Thank You’ to Mrs Sheridan who had a very large family to cook for!) and our Christmas party today.

At 09.05am on Friday 21st December we will have our end of term assembly which everyone is welcome to come along to.

Mrs Wahid
As you will be aware, Mrs Wahid is recovering from recent surgery and on-going treatment and is currently absent from school. This will continue to be the case as we start the new year. Our thoughts and prayers go to Mrs Wahid and we wish her a full and speedy recovery.

Forest School Dates
The forest school dates for January through to early April are attached to this newsletter. They have also been uploaded to the school website and the school calendar on the website. Please could parents/children make a note when their forest school sessions are so that appropriate clothing is brought to school on those days. Thank you.

  • Karate for Years 3-6 on Tuesdays
