Here is a little taster of some of the class Christmas craft items that will be for sale prior to our Nativity performances next week:
Tomorrow the children are welcome to wear a Christmas Jumper to school along with the rest of their school uniform.
If you have any spare Christmas jumpers that you no longer need, we would be grateful if you could drop them off at the school. Likewise, if your child wishes to borrow a Christmas jumper for the day, we do have a very small selection kept in school.
We are delighted to be continuing with our annual Reverse Advent Calendar initiative this year. This is a wonderful project which helps local families who may be struggling this Christmas.
Pupils can begin bringing in to school any items similar to those listed below. We will collect items up until Wednesday 21st December when Father Martin will then uplift them and take them to the Food Bank.
Please do not hand in perishable food stuffs
Doors will be open for access to our small hall half an hour before each performance, where parents/carers will be able to purchase items from our class Christmas crafts, order school class calendars and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee.
Doors open on Wednesday 14th at 1.30pm (performance at 2pm)
Doors open on Thursday 15th at 5pm (performance at 5.30pm)
Check back here shortly for pictures of the Christmas crafts which will be on sale.
For information, this week will be the last week of homework until after the Christmas break

We have a number of children across the school with Gastro symptoms, Diarrhoea and/or vomiting. After seeking advice from the Health Protection Team they have asked for parents/carers to be reminded about the importance of washing hands and if a child does show symptoms they must be without these for 48hrs prior to returning to school.
Thank you for you cooperation with this matter.
