Our busy Christmas week
Christmas lunch
Thank you to all the wonderful kitchen staff for our fantastic Christmas lunch this week. The children loved the Christmas music, decorations and crackers as well as the food and being served by staff members!
Christchurch Carol Service
The children all took part in the annual Christchurch Carol service this week. The choir wowed us with their magnificent singing and all the reader were clear and spoke beautifully. Well done to everyone who came and joined in so enthusiastically. We were very proud.
Our Fantastic Football team
Last week the school football team took part in their first ever tournament. They managed to go past the group stages with some fabulous solo and team performances and made it to the semi finals where we were beaten in penalties. The sportsmanship of the whole team was amazing and not only did they cheer each other on but were supportive of every team. Well done everyone.
Beyond the beat
Children in Year 3 performed in their first ever Beyond the Beat Concert! They were accompanied by the continuing musicians from years 4, 5 and 6.
Birch class
This week Birch Class have been cooking! The children worked really hard to chop all of the vegetables to make tacos and rataouille. Even though some of them were a little nervous to try new vegetables for the first time, everyone tried both dishes and thought they were yummy!
Sycamore
This week, Sycamore took part in our Christingle tradition. Children were respectful and sang beautifully.
Elm
Elm class have been very busy this week. They explored the difference between whole foods and processed foods and then made their own non-cook pasta sauce. Although some children were a little dubious at the start, most of them enjoyed the final products. Elm class also completed their art unit this week. Their task was to create a piece of art using a medium of their choice, that represented everything they have learnt through our Maafa topic. We were so impressed by the thought and care that went into their ideas and the results were beautiful and thought provoking.
