Show Tickets<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

All pupils in Nursery and P1-7 will be taking part in the Christmas Show. Tickets are now on sale at the school office.\u00a0
Each family can buy 2 tickets for the\u00a0show<\/span>\u00a0(\u00a32 each). We can\u2019t offer more than two tickets per family due to the capacity of the hall. But each family will also be able to purchase 2 tickets for the dress rehearsal in the morning (\u00a31 each) so a total of 4 people per family can see the\u00a0show<\/span> if they want.
Please note that we can’t make an exception for parents who live apart – if this is true for your family, please decide together about buying the tickets and who will go to each performance.\u00a0
You can go to the school office in person to buy your tickets or you can send your child in with an envelope of money and write their name and the tickets you want on the front.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Calendars<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

If you ordered a school calendar you will have received an email telling you how to pay for and collect your calendar. Please pay and collect by 15th December. We will put any left over after that date on general sale at the Christmas Show.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

School Uniform<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Please remind your child to leave Christmas clothes and accessories at home except for those they are asked to bring in for the show and on the Christmas Lunch day and the last day of term. This helps us keep everyone learning happily right up to the end of term and makes the show and no uniform days feel more special.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Shoes<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

P1-7 parents, please remind to send your child to school with a second pair of shoes which they can change into at playtime if it is wet or if the garden is muddy. This helps us to keep the garden open through the winter as well as keeping the carpets clean and everyone’s feet dry. On a really wet day, it also worth packing an extra pair of socks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
