Infant - Weekly Email - Friday 19th December

Dear Parents/Carers,
 

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!  We've reached the end of the term and had a great time working with your children and each other. 

 

All of the staff would like to say a huge thank you for the Christmas gifts you have so generously given them - they really are appreciated! 

 

Christmas Parties
The children really enjoyed their Christmas parties and it was so lovely to see them having such a wonderful time and getting into the festive spirit.  
 
Christmas Church Service
It was wonderful to see so many of you at the Church Service. All the children performed magnificently and made their teachers very proud of them. It was a great way to conclude the term.

There will be three prizes available when the winning entry is drawn in January. Adults can vote for their favourite window using the link below.  The shop window with the most votes counted in January will win a prize and be awarded the prestigious Best Dressed Window Cup.
