It was wonderful to welcome families back into school to watch the fantastic Christmas perfomance by children in Year 1 and 2.
The singing was beautiful and the readers were loud and clear as we retold the Christian Christmas story.
Well done everyone!
What a lovely morning we had at St Andrew’s Church! The choir sang beautifully as did the whole of the year 4,5,and 6 classes.
Our readers were amazing too as we told the Christian story of Christmas through words and songs.
Our Staff and Children’s Christmas Choir will be starting after half term! If you are in Years 3 to 6 and love a good sing -song you are welcome to come along! We will be singing some beautiful traditional songs and some lively modern songs with a Winter or Christmas theme.
Ask your teacher for a letter or come and ask Miss Jones.
Rehearsals will be in the Nursery on Thursday mornings at 8:00am. Our first rehearsal is on Thursday 3rd November. You will need to come in to school through the Forest Door.
See you then!

Our Ukulele Club meets every Wednesday morning at 8:00am in Mr Myatt’s room. If you enjoyed ukulele lessons in Year 4 and are now in Year 5 or 6 and would like to continue learning to play this wonderful instrument you are very welcome!
Today both Year 4 classes and Ukelele club performed for the whole school in the hall. They sounded amazing and showed us what fantastic songs they had learnt and how wonderfully that they could all play and sing. It was a real treat for the audience to watch! We managed to recors some short clips to share on our blog.
Year 4Ma’s performance:
Year 4M’s performance:
This morning our fabulous Year 4 and our BV ukulele club put on a ukulele concert.
In PSHE, the children learned about money and financial management. We then listened to ‘If I Had A Million Dollars…’ and then the children came up with their own version.
Year 6 had an amazing afternoon when they visited Media City to listen to a concert by the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra.
We listened to music by composers Anna Clyne, Jessie Montgomery, Vivaldi and John Williams (who wrote the music to the Star Wars movies!)
Here are some of the comments which the children made after listening to the concert:
Aiden: When I listened to the relaxing ones I could have just fallen asleep
Murad: I liked how the sound made pictures in my head
Salman: It was great how the music was real life
Zayan: That was sick!
You can watch the concert again on the iPlayer.
