There was a lot of joy and happiness spread across the dinner halls. Everyone enjoyed having a bit of a sing along to the Christmas carols while eating their Christmas lunch.

The children of Year 6 recently learnt about what a Christingle is (oranges wrapped in red tape, decorated with dried fruit or sweets, with a candle on the top) and how each element has a special meaning. The orange represents the world; the red ribbon (or tape) symbolises the love and blood of Christ; the sweets represent all of God's creations and the lit candle represents Jesus's light in the world, bringing hope to people living in darkness. The children enjoyed making Christingles and gaining awareness of this celebration. Many children also shared some of their own experiences of traditions and festivals that are celebrated within their own faiths or homes

KS1 have been searching high and low for Santa’s Hat! The old clot, where did he leave it?

On Friday 9^th December we invited pupils and staff to come to school wearing their Christmas jumpers so we could raise money for Save the Children.  Everyone was feeling and looking very festive and it really was a fantastic sight to see so many colourful, glittery and festive jumpers. 

In Year 1 this term, we have been spending our afternoons completing our learning through Play Projects.
