Friday 11 December 2015


The countdown to Christmas is upon us and the children become more excited every day as the arrival of Father Christmas gets ever closer. Although it is a very busy time of year it is also a very enjoyable one because they are lots of fun activities which occur in school. Last Saturday we held our Frost Fayre and it was a huge success. One of the outside stall holders who came said it was the best Christmas fair that she had been to. Once again I would like to thank all the members of the PTA and the parents, staff and family who supported them in making it such a success. I would especially like to thank Emma O’Brien and Simon Hall for co-ordinating the whole event. At this stage we do not know exactly how much money we raised but as soon as we do I know I will inform you.

On Thursday we had our Christmas Lunch which the children always enjoy because we serve them. When the children finished their lunch the staff had their lunch served to them by the Year 6. While the staff were enjoying their lunch, the children had Christmas music in the playground and were taken care of by parent volunteers who I would like to personally thank for giving their time. I hope they enjoyed themselves as much as the children enjoyed having them in the playground.

Next week is extremely busy with concerts, shows and parties. I have sent the dates out twice of when all the events are taking place but if you are unsure of anything you can check the ‘1st December’ newsletter on the website or contact the school office. With so much going on I know that next week will just fly by and it will be the end of term and Christmas before we know it. I hope you can find some time to relax this weekend before all the madness begins.
