Sorry for the delay for our blog for last week. The full Glow system we use for the school blog was down from Thursday evening until Monday. We put our blog together as normal, but Mrs Rankin wasn’t able to upload it on Friday.

Better late than never..here we go. Last week was a busy week for us getting organised for the Christmas Fayre and we were in full steam ahead getting on with our crafts. We made our lollipop tree decorations first and these have turned out well. It was then onto putting together our Pine Cone Elves which involved different stages for the production line and having some patience letting things dry!

Other highlights of our week are:

• Callum – a few of us were off playing Longridge football team on Thursday afternoon at the Community Centre. This was our first competitive game and unfortunately, we lost 1-2 but we all enjoyed taking part.
• Keris – we have been asked to elf ourselves for a school display and Mrs Rankin has taken our pictures to get these started!
• Brogan – on Monday morning, all girls in the school got the opportunity to take part in a football taster session with a coach called Rachel. It was good fun!
• Alfie – while the girls were at football with Mrs Rankin, the boys had Mrs Loosemore and she gave us a maths lesson with a difference. We had to use the internet to see what we could buy an imaginary family with £500 for Christmas. We did quite well!
• Eve – we had our last futsal session this week. We have all enjoyed these sessions.
• Hannah – the P6/7 choir this week was taken by Mrs Loosemore. We are getting better and the Santa Parade is getting closer!
• Cory – we had our usual weekly spelling tests.
• Charley – we are all really enjoying making our crafts for the Christmas Fayre. Mrs Rankin showed those of us who wanted to sew how to make hats for the elves. They all look great.

Here are a few pictures of our crafts in production.

PE days will be changing in the run up to Christmas due to a new PE teacher starting on Monday. Mrs Rankin will let us know which days we will need our PE kits on once she sees the gym timetable.

Christmas has arrived in the P6/5 classroom with a mini tree and some decorations and of course an advent calendar! It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

Hope everyone had a nice weekend and we hope to see you at our stall on Tuesday evening!
