Here's to 2011

We'd like to wish you all a very happy Christmas and a super New Year!!

Miss Lambert, Mrs Steel, Mrs Friar and Mrs Chin.

Merry Christmas and all that.......

......stuff!
Well we have had an amazingly busy last week of term with our dress rehearsal for the whole school followed by our performance of 'Star of Wonder' to parents, carers and grandparents. The children worked incredibly hard to learn their lines and all the songs and despite a few technical hitches (!) it all went fabulously!
Thank you all for supporting us and providing all those super costumes. I'm sure you will agree that they all looked amazing.
Thank you too to the parents who have let us know how much they enjoyed the show. We are incredibly proud of all the children and what they have achieved.

Wednesday saw our class party and a treat for us all, a visiting pantomime performance of Peter Pan. The children were mesmerised and well done to Leo who joined in with the cast giving amazing directions for Peter Pan to rescue Wendy!

On Thursday we joined the rest of the school in the Hall for the Carol service and on Friday we had a fun filled day, culminating in Carols around the tree.

Sadly we have had a few children ill over the last week - we all hope you are feeling much better now and look forward to seeing you ......we've really missed you all!

....and we're still busy making salt dough decorations.

Look how busy we've been.......

You know it's winter when.....

...your window ledge is full of wellies! This is a deja
vu moment from last January when we had snow
for three weeks!

Thank you for your patience at drop off and
collection times whilst we all help out with
the wellingtons!

What we've been up to today....

Despite the weather, we've had a fabulous day in Reception. This morning the children made a start on sewing some fabulous Christmas decorations. A huge thank you to Mrs Friar who spent last night cutting out felt shapes and threading needles!

This afternoon Mrs Chin took over the fabulous sewing and our intrepid baking team, led by Mrs Friar trekked to the annexe and made us all some lovely jam tarts!

Snowy weather

The children have been really excited about all the lovely white stuff that has fallen from the sky this week! Mrs Friar and Mrs Chin have braved the weather and brought in some super snow which the children have really enjoyed investigating!
