Christmas in KS1

All three classes have been busy learning about the Nativity story, making Christingles and took party in an activity afternoon. They have made cards, watched a Christmas film, watched the Year 3 and 4 play, been to church, sang carols by candlelight and now the day is almost upon us!

Mrs Matthews, Miss Stickley and Miss Ball would like to thank you for all your generous gifts and cards and hope you have a peaceful and merry Christmas.

Some of the items we have made this Christmas... (not every child will have nmade everything, it depends on which class they are in and whether they were in school that day or not).

Christmas Events

On Monday we all enjoyed our Christmas treat. The Flying Pizza Company performed Hobbity tales for us and much laughter was to be heard.

 

Wednesday saw us partaking in Christmas Dinner and delicious it was too. Some siblings even got to sit together!

 

 

Friday saw the Nursery holding their Christmas party; this is always a treat for all involved.

 

With one more week to go, cards are being delivered, Years 3 and 4 will perform to their family and friends, we will hold our Christmas service and then the real excitement will begin. Do not forget our Church have lots of different services over Christmas, including the Christmas Eve one, especially for primary School age children and their families.

Christmas displays

Just in case you were unable to come to the school Bazaar, and so have not been down the main corridor recently, here is a selection of the Christmas displays that each class has contributed towards.

 

Now that Advent has begun we hope you will have a chance to visit school for yourself at some point to see these, either for Monday assembly, a class assembly, the EYFS production, the Year 3 and 4 production or when volunteering in school.
