Dear Parents/Guardians The annual Christmas Bauble Competition is now open! Children can buy a Christmas bauble from the office for £1 and take it home to decorate. Once the bauble is complete, they bring it back to school and all of the entries will be judged on Christmas Dinner day. Good luck to all.

The children helped to raise money for Children in Need today by having a non-uniform day. There were lots of spotty and Pudsey outfits in school and the children had a lot of fun.

We are well underway with Christmas play rehearsals. This year we are having a whole school production of ‘The Magical Christmas Jigsaw’. Performances will be held on Wednesday 7th December. More details are to follow. Nursery and Reception children will be holding their own production of the Nativity story on Friday 9th December at 11am.
