This term, Y3 have produced some fantastic work. As you are not allowed in to school during the current pandemic, I thought it would be nice if you had the opportunity to see some of the fantastic displays that showcase this. We hope you like them. Can you spot your child’s work?

Although Christmas couldn’t be the same this year, that wasn’t going to dampen Y3’s spirit!

For the last few days of term, we created some fantastic Christmas-themed crafts to take home and keep. We used a variety of techniques to make two personalised baubles and a snow man card for our families.

We watched a special pre-recorded performance of Cinderella by the talented people at the Nottingham Playhouse. It was great, we dimmed the lights and ate snacks, just like we were actually there! The children stamped their feet, booed and cheered in all the appropriate places and generally had a fantastic time.

On 16^th December the whole school enjoyed a wonderful Christmas dinner. Year 3 wore fun Christmas jumpers and spent the day listening to Christmas songs, as well as enjoying a variety of Christmas activates!

Year 4 were treated to a Christmas lunch in the classroom on Wednesday (December 16) followed by a festive star-shaped shortcake biscuit with lemonade!

The children also made Christmas cards and listened to festive music.

Happy Christmas everyone – from all of us in Year 4!

On Monday December 14^th, Issie, our school Chaplain, lead Year 2 in a retreat. We talked about the preparations you make for a journey and drew the items that Mary and Joseph would need in a rucksack. We then focused on how we prepare for Christmas and the coming of Jesus. In the afternoon, the children were introduced to the story of The Visitation and talked about how each of the people in the story would have felt-Mary, Elizabeth, Zachariah and Joseph.  They prepared short dramas about each of these people and their feelings. The day ended with the children preparing and taking part in a class Liturgy.
