Hamper Raffle Draw!

 

We held our 'virtual' Hamper Raffle Draw today with all the children watching on screen in their classrooms. Children from each class bubble then came down in turns to draw a ticket. Congratulations to the winners who have all been notified of their win! Thanks to our PTA for organising the event and to everyone who donated and bought lots of tickets to support us.

Jazzy Jays' Christmas lunch went with a bang

 

Good Afternoon, 

Jazzy Jays thoroughly enjoyed their Christmas Lunch today and had great fun pulling these crackers! What a lovely way to celebrate Christmas together.

Christmas Kestrels!

Well done to Kestrels on their amazing performance for the Christmas production! They looked fabulous dressed as various elements of a Christmas dinner (a huge thank you to Mrs Meddings for all her hard work with costumes!) & performed our class song 'Sprouts Have Feelings Too' brilliantly. 

Jazzy Jays smashing their Christmas performance

 Well... Jazzy Jays, what can I say? You were absolutely AAAAAAMAZING! 

After weeks of rehearsals, having "smile" shouted at us and singing peace child until we were chanting it in our sleep, today we recorded our final version for the Christmas production and we did not disappoint! 

Miss Schofield, Miss Joseph, Mrs Kasba and Mrs Singaravaloo were so impressed by how well it all came together. Although it started as a crazy mindmap of Miss Schofield's even crazier ideas, it looked absolutely incredible when it was all put together. 

Well done my Jazzy Jays - you really pulled off a tricky performance! Thank you for bringing us adults so much Christmas cheer. 

Super Swifts, Granny and the Mistletoe!

 The SUPER Swift class performed their production for the Christmas show earlier and it was absolutely amazing. The team and I are so proud of them all, this was their BEST show yet! The children looked absolutely wonderful in their costumes and danced their socks off. I can't wait for you to see it, the video will be made available to you all real soon. 

Here are some sneak preview shots of them...

Sikh Toy Appeal

I am very proud to share these pictures of our pupils volunteering with members of the Sikh community who participated in a charity event on the weekend. The Sikh Toy Appeal aims to raise awareness and gift children during the festive period. There will be a number of children who may not receive a gift this Christmas which is the focus of the appeal.

The appeal recieved very many contributions over the weekend surpassed expectations and lots of children will receive a gift this Christmas. Both Anand (in the suit) and Arvinder were available to help (keeping Covid safe and adhered to all safety precautions put in place) raise money and enduring the challenge of wearing the lion mask in the spirit of the appeal. Impressive dedication and tenacity! Jamie Carragher (ex Liverpool FC) is a supporter of the charity and aparently liked a picture of our appeal effort in Southampton on Instagram.

Apparently, the boys will again be helping next weekend with the aim of feeding over 100 people. The purpose of which is to promote giving during this time of year. Well done to them and the whole Sikh community for their good work supporting those in need.
