Year 5 Egyptian Museum
The children in Year 5 have transformed the class group room into a showcase of this term’s work on Ancient Egypt. This stunning presentation is an amazing collection of artwork, design technology, historical research and writing. If you visit the museum our Year 5 children are very knowledgeable tour guides.
Midwife Crisis
In the Class 1 & 2 nativity play, a very busy midwife who never misses an important birth is extremely excited when she hears that a king is about to be born in Bethlehem. She rushes out into the night in search of a shiny golden palace fit for a king. Her donkey Steve doesn’t think he’s ever heard of Bethlehem Palace, but the midwife is in no mood to listen – where else would a king be born? With the help of some gospel-singing angels and a very bright star, the midwife is led to a humble stable to find the very special baby already waiting for her.
Well done to all the children in Class 1 & 2 and thank you to all the staff for their hard work.
