I can’t believe we are coming into our final week before the holidays! I am still trying to keep everything as routine as I possibly can, so please see below to any events/changes we have.

P.E is on Tuesday and Wednesday. I will send home P.E kits on Wednesday to be washed over the holidays.

Other info

Monday 18th December – Funbox concert in the morning.

Tuesday 19th December – P1/2 Christmas Party. Children can bring in party clothes in a named bag or their school bag, to change into in the afternoon. Please do not send your child to school in party clothes because children use glue, paint etc. throughout the day and they may end up very messy before the party!                   Parents are welcome at 2:30pm for a photo opportunity with a special visitor!

Thursday 21st December – House Sing-off in the morning and a Christmas singing assembly in the afternoon.

Friday 22nd December – whole school visit to church for Christmas service. Parents are welcome to walk with us and join us, please let myself or the school office know.

Please note, school finishes on Friday 22nd December at 12:25pm and children return on Tuesday 9th January at 8:50am. 

I hope you all have a wonderful holiday and thank you so much for your support this term.

Thank you
