Over the last 12 weeks our Rocksteady band sessions have been running each Wednesday morning.  Five bands (involving 33 pupils) have taken part and they got to showcase their final piece yesterday to their parents/carers and other year groups.  We were all very impressed with how much the children had developed over the weeks and look forward to seeing their next performance!

If any other pupils may be interested in joining, please see detail on the flyer below

On Thursday last week, we enjoyed our delicious annual Christmas dinner. The kitchen staff cooked an astonishing 680 meals for 3 schools and 440 of our pupils and staff enjoyed turkey and all the trimmings. We had music, disco lights and lots of fun!

The children in Stepping Stones have enjoyed making chocolate Christmas Truffles today!

We were delighted to present our festive school production of A Christmas Carol, performed by pupils from Years 3 to 6, with the school choir also playing a key role in the show.

The much-loved Charles Dickens classic was brought to life through a week of performances on 8th (twice), 9th and 12th December, showcasing the hard work, enthusiasm and talent of pupils across the school. From dramatic storytelling to memorable songs performed by the choir, the production captured the true spirit of Christmas.

Reminder

We are looking for scooters in good working order to enhance our playtime activities for the children. We are aware that Father Christmas might be on the way to replace some scooters so we would be delighted to accept any old ones (drop off at main reception). 

On Wednesday night, the DJS choir performed at All Saints Church as part of Naylor's remembrance service. The children performed a medley of classic Christmas songs accompanied by Mrs Salter. The children were a credit to the school. As a treat, they met Santa! (see gallery)
