The afternoon children got in the party spirit just as much as the morning children and here are the photos that show it. As you can see, they joined in the dancing and games with great enthusiasm and were also lucky enough to get a visit from Santa. As with the photos of the morning children, please click then click again to make the photos clearer.

Music, Games, Dancing and Party Food
There was plenty of music, games, dancing and party food at our Christmas parties which made for a fun time for all. The children had planned their games and helped to make some of the cakes which appeared to go down a treat. It was lovely to see the children from the Rainbow and Sunshine Rooms playing so happily and confidently together. It must have been the children’s super behaviour that brought the arrival of Santa despite his heavy workload at the moment. Thank you Santa – we all really appreciated your visit.
The photos below give you a taste of our morning party. Don’t they look wonderful in their party clothes? Photos of the afternoon party will follow soon.
Super Singers
Thank you to Rebecca’s Mum for her comment on one of the photos of the children’s singing this week:
“They look fair happy, what a good singing they all did”
It was lovely to see them happy and relaxed to perform. We also had great fun at our parties yesterday and hope to get photos up in the next few days for you all to see.
Singing Celebration
As promised, we have some photos of the children as they prepared for our Christmas celebration with their families. We hope that, like us, you were very proud of them all as they behaved and sang so beautifully in front of a big audience. Huge thanks to Rev. McGougan for joining us and to all the family members who helped to make this a special occasion for the children.

Cake Making
Sophie’s Mum enjoyed the photos of the children making cakes for their party:
“sophie.s looks like shes having loads of fun here she loves making cakes she helps mum at home with fairy cakes we will be making some on xmas eve”
I wonder if you’ll leave one of your cakes for Santa Sophie?
Party Cakes
Tomorrow is party day for Nursery and some of the children have been busy making cakes to add to the party food. Dancing, games and music are what they requested when we planned our party so that is what we will have. The children can wear party clothes if they wish. Remember that parents are welcome to see Santa’s arrival in the school hall – please use the main school entrance and we will bring you to the hall when we are ready.
Busy Families
Lots more Mums and Dads joined their children for Eileen’s Christmas Family Learning activity on Monday this week. Here are some of them busy at work. We are sure that your Christmas trees will look lovely now with your new decorations. Thanks go, as always, to Eileen for arranging these opportunities for our families. Keep an eye on the Family Learning noticeboard next term for more activities.
Star Performance
Thank you so much to all our families who supported the children today at our Christmas celebration. Carmen’s Mum has left all the boys and girls a lovely comment:
“WOW the concert was great today. Carmen’s Nonna and I really enjoyed it. The children were super. Lovely little singers. Well done to ALL the boys and girls for giving us a star performance. Very well done to all the teachers you all do a great job X”
The children were little stars and we were all very proud of them. We have some photos taken as they got ready to sing and will try to put them up on the blog soon.
Christmas Celebration
We hope that you are looking forward to the children’s Christmas performance tomorrow (17.12.13). After positive feedback from our Harvest celebration, we decided to keep our Christmas celebration informal to encourage the children to enjoy a relaxed and happy performance of the songs they have been learning. Rev. McGougan has kindly agreed to join us again and we are delighted that many parents have indicated that they would like to be part of our celebration.
We thought you might like to see a few photos of the children practising to give you a little taster. We look forward to seeing you all tomorrow.
Christmas Crafts
It was great to see that more children and their families were joining in the Christmas craft activities today. Sophie’s family made theirs on Friday and seemed to enjoy themselves as Mum has left us a comment:
“We had a lovely morning and Sophie and Thom were keen to their
Angel decorations on the tree as soon as we got home!
They look lovely.”
We’re glad that you were pleased with your creations and will try to put a few more photos up later in the week.
