December 2011 Newsletter
As we approach the festive season, we would like to share some of the wonderful enrichment opportunities that the children have been able to experience this term. There are a host of other planned activities for next term; letters will follow regarding individual events, however please check our website and the notice board in the playground for updates.
May we wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a peaceful and healthy New Year.
A Christmas Prayer
Thank you for our Christmas Day, our presents and our loving families.
Let us not forget those who are less fortunate than us.
We wish Jesus a very happy birthday and hope for a peaceful Christmas.
Help us to be ready for the New Year at school.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.
By Tamia Bryan-Chapman and Lucas Pinfold (Year 3)
