Christmas activities in school this year

Christmas in school has been a very magical time of year. There has been plenty of tinsel and tea towels in our Christmas production, which has put a great big smile on all of our faces. The Kiddie Choir have been singing their hearts out all over the village and everyone has been very busy making wonderful cards and crafts ready to take home. A huge thank you to Reception for donating a decoration and putting it on our Christmas tree with such care.
