Dear Parents/Carers and Children,

I realise it is only the end of November but it is starting to feel a little bit like Christmas in school. With only three weeks left the children have been preparing; singing some beautiful songs and I have to say it is making me feel a little bit excited! I always recognise that my job is probably the best job in the world! Letters are being sent out today regarding the Christmas Dinner in school, it is most important that the deadlines on the letter are adhered to as the food and turkeys need to be ordered. This worked really well last year and was enjoyed by all.

NativitiesRus

An exhibition of over 50 Nativity Sets and Scenes along with a host of Angels made by Dalton schoolchildren at The United Reform Church. Our children, with the help of Miss Jones have made 3 fabulous angels and I know they would enjoy going along and seeing them in Church. It is free entry and the dates are:
