Longest Paper ChainWe made the world’s longest paper chain today. We worked together and made it as long as we could. We used trundle wheels to measure it and it was an amazing 33m!!

The Xmas Factor!

The Xmas Factor!

Well what a show!! Parents, granparents, brothers and sisters, young and old all lined up waiting in anticipation for the P6-P7 Christmas show. The outfits were put on, the last minute adjustments to hair were put in place and then it was time to get going.

We were all feeling a bit nervous but we were looking forward to putting the show on too. The songs were quite hard to learn but we knew we would be able to do them well because we had all tried so hard to learn the words and the actions.

Here are some photos of our concert:

We also have some short video clips of our concert too which will be uploaded very soon. Watch this space!

The played extremely well and showed off their team working skills and creativity. As a result, they won the game 12-0. Lois-Jay Muir was given the prestigious title of “Player of the Match”  so an extra well done to her too!

This is an amazing achievement for our netball team and we are absolutely delighted with how hard they are working.

Thank you to their coaches who work with them every week and help them to achieve their goals.
