Easter is a very special time of year for Christians, and something which we have enjoyed celebrating over the last week here at school.  Here are just some of the highlights.

Children in Reception re-enacted when Jesus came into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday.  They had used their amazing scissor skills to create some wonderful paper palm leaves.

We had a very successful Easter Fair, arranged by our fantastic PTA.  Children took part in Easter egg hunts, tombolas, hoopla and of course, ate plenty of yummy Easter treats.

On the final day of term everyone went to St Alban’s Church to thank God for giving us his only son.  The year 6 children helped to act out the story of the Crucifixion and the Resurrection to help all of the younger children to understand.

And of course, it wouldn’t be a St Alban’s Easter without a visit from the Easter Bunny…

We wish all of our families a very happy and peaceful Easter.

We were delighted to receive this letter in the post today from the Minister for Schools.  This is to acknowledge the truly amazing achievements of our Year 4s in their multiplication tables checks last year.  Out of the 16,000 schools in England, St Alban’s was in the top 200.  We are so proud of all of the children, parents and teachers who help our children to be their best every day.

Good afternoon

We have received the below message from the Church Warden. The work will be starting on Monday 15th May.

Thank you
Mrs Shemwell

This is to let you know that the church is having work done in the next two weeks, starting next Monday, relating to repair of the church building. The path through the churchyard will be affected at times, but the contractors are aware that it is used regularly by children and parents, and it will not be closed during critical periods. Please would you advise parents that this will be happening, and be prepared to cooperate with arrangements.

Best wishes,
Church Warden

Due to the cost of living crisis, and the fact many parents find fancy dress for their children stressful, we are going to run a competition to see who can make the best costume!

I will be holding an assembly this Friday morning where House Carmel will be launching the competition.
