Santa Visit
Our younger children were delighted today to receive a visit from Father Christmas.
He surprised classes CH, KM, KB & JT this morning, ringing his bell, having a little chat with the whole class and leaving a little treat for them all before he went on his way.
Sadly he wasn't able to visit all the other classes, as he has a lot of work to do before Christmas Eve, but he has left treats with the teachers to give out to all the children.
Happy Christmas everyone!
Behind You! The Panto comes to school!
We wish to say a great big thank you to the Friends for funding a live streamed Pantomime for all the children in school.
All the classes have been watching a live streamed version of 'Cinderella' either yesterday or today.
They have thoroughly enjoyed it - and we can hear their laughter along the corridors...

Celebration of the Christmas Story
We are delighted with our Celebration of the Christmas Story which has been sent to parents via a private link to view today.
The Nativity Story is brilliantly performed by the children in Foundation and Key Stage 1 and is accompanied by beautifully sung Christmas Carols from Key Stage 2. We are delighted with the results. The children have thoroughly enjoyed watching the ‘Premiere’ in school today.
Grateful thanks to Mrs Christie for her hard work in filming and editing to create this wonderful 30 minute video. We'd love to hear any WOW! comments if you've had a chance to view it.
Please also view the website gallery for a collection of still images from the filming.
Christmas Tree Festival at St Michael's Church
The children in classes CH & KM (Reception) have created some beautiful star decorations in support of the Christmas Tree Festival at St Michael's Church.
Many local community groups have decorated a tree as part of this annual event, so do visit the church to see our tree and the many other wonderfully decorated trees between now and Christmas.

Filming Underway
The weather put a bit of a dampener on the Nativity filming schedule today ... so we had a few soggy stars, some rather drenched angels, a class of soaked carolers and a very dripping donkey - but they are all still smiling!
