As you may have heard already, we had some very special visitors in our school today. Not only did santa arrive with his helper elf, reindeer and his very own snow machine, the children seemed extremely pleased with a certain canine vistor on the front seat. Santa brought a dog and we couldnt have been happier. Back to our day... they children showed me that they could be very well behaved and wait their turn when arriving at Santa's van. After receiving a gift from the man himself, we stood on the playground in our groups and thoroughly enjoyed the wonders of a snow machine. MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

During our last week in school, we were all lucky enough to be visited by Mr Claus himself. He left a huge bad of gifts for those children who had been incredibly sensible and good for their teachers in our first term of Nursery. The excitement and joy on the faces of each child was incredible, each child was eager to share their toys and play amongst all of their new found friends. Roll on 2020!

Reception have been as busy as Father Christmas' Elves this week! We have upheld the tradition of eating Christmas Dinner, it was delicious. Thank you Bernie and all the kitchen team!

We found out Lightening is 3 years old, and still in training to learn how to fly! Father Christmas brought his reindeer and the snow with him... We performed for the other children in school, and for our families on Wednesday. We did so well, in front of so many people. All the adults in school are school are so proud of us! We have be

Year 2 performed the Christmas Story yesterday for their families. They have worked so hard to learn songs, words, actions, dances and acting. I'm sure you all agree that they did an amazing job.

Santa and his reindeer 'Lightening' came to visit Chestnut today. We got to stroke 'Lightening' , he was so soft and fluffy. Santa listened to our Christmas wishes and he even made it snow for a little while.

Today Willow class met Santa Claus and one of his reindeers. We were allowed to stroke the reindeer and Santa gave us a present. We had great fun with the fake snow machine!

Willow class had a fabulous time taking part in drama activities with a professional drama teacher. The children were able to bring this historical event to life. They practised different drama techniques such as freeze framing and conscience alley. The children took on various roles as they re-told the events of The Great Fire of London together.

Year 1 had a great time at their Christmas movie night last week. We snuggled up in our slippers with blankets, cushions and teddy bears and got comfy for the movie. We enjoyed treats of popcorn and juice.

Elm class enjoyed their Great Fire of London immersive workshop experience today. We were able to share lots of facts we already knew and we also learned lots of new and interesting things about London in 1666. We were able to go back in time to experience London for ourselves, including the Great Fire and the Plague. We had lots of fun!

Elm class really enjoyed their delicious festive dinner, along with a chocolate ice cream christmas tree for pudding! It was lovely to listen to christmas songs and have a little dance when we had finished eating.
