Christmas Plays

Monday and Tuesday saw the performances of our two Christmas plays- the infant department performed 'Cat in the Manger', a traditional nativity story adapted from the Michael Morpurgo book, whilst the juniors performed the more contemporary 'Bossy Christmas Fairy'. Both performances were of a very high standard, and it was impressive how quickly and how well the children had mastered all the different skills necessary to put show like this together.
During the break we were entertained by our woodwind players, who have now reached a very good standard. A good number of parents joined us for both performances, and a great afternoon was had by all! Well done and thank you to all involved in these productions.

Carol Concert at St Alban's


Monday morning saw the whole school involved in a very coldd march up to St Alban's Church for our carol concert- led by our good friend and Chair of Governors Rev. Gary Phillbrick. The church is a magnificent building, and this along with the pipe organ music lent a real sense of occasion to the event. A busy Christmas week in school has begun!

Open on Monday

The weather has improved dramatically over the weekend, so we will be open as usual tomorrow. There is still strong probability of heavy frost, so make sure you wrap up warm and mind your step walking in. Let's hope that we've now had this year's dose of disruptive weather!

Friday Closure

The weather forecast overnight is for exceptionally cold weather (-9 c), given the amount of slush that is going to freeze under those conditions, we will not be able to get enough staff in to operate safely. The forecast for Saturday is for much milder weather, so we are fully optimistic that we will be able to open as usual on Monday.
We apologise for all the inconvenience that this decision will undoubtedly cause, but we hope that in deciding early, it will make it easier to arrange childcare.
