Last week the whole school enjoyed Sinai’s assembly, celebrating our children’s talents.
Introducing Lucy playing her guitar, Jacob singing and George skipping.
Well done children, it takes so much courage to perform in front of the whole school.
Carmel’s Easter Treasure Hunt was a great success today. We will announce the winning house in collective worship tomorrow.
A huge thank you to the House Carmel’s Leaders. They organised the whole day and demonstrated their superb leadership skills.
The PTA rewarded all children with a chocolate egg- this was a welcome treat after the fast pace treasure hunt -in the cold Spring air!
We are very excited about performing Oliver to you this week! The programmes are ready and will be available to buy for 50p on the day. One per family initially, to ensure all children have a keepsake. Thank you to Mr & Mrs Jones for their help in the production of these.
Fearne so kindly made a celebration chocolate cake for myself and all the helpers! It is delicious – thank you too to Nonna who helped!
If anyone has a good camera and wouldn’t mind taking a few pictures for us please let myself or Mrs Tune know.
See you all on Thursday!
Please see Mrs Tune or Miss Gretton for tickets. There is no limit on tickets so if you wish to bring Grandparents or other family members you are most welcome.
Thank you for for supporting House Carmel’s book sale with your kind book donations.
The book sale went really well but has been cut short due to school closing. So when we return to school we will continue to sell books at break times.
We have a great selection of good quality books and most books cost 50p. All money raised will go towards buying new seating for the library area.
Thank you
St Alban’s School will be closed tomorrow, Thursday 1st March.
It is clear that temperatures will remain below freezing, and there is the threat of continued heavy snow showers. This decision has been made to ensure the health and safety of all staff and pupils.
Please help us to ensure all parents receive this message by sharing through your own social media.
Thank you,
On Wednesday 21st February House Sinai will be hosting their first ‘Celebrating Talents’ assembly. They have chosen the following children to show off their talents to the school.
Year 2- Libby (dancing)
Year 3- Fearne (Singing)
Year 4 – Connor (Piano)
Year 6- Charlie (Art)

We hope that these assemblies will give all pupils a chance to celebrate their talents and may encourage children to try new things. We have not invited parents to this collective worship.
Mrs Gurner
House Carmel are raising money to buy better seating in the library area. So if you have any unwanted books then please donate them to school. House Carmel are then going to sell the books at breaks and lunchtimes.

Book Week 26th February – 2nd March
“Book in a box” competition
Our Book Week Competition this year is to create a “book in a box” with super prizes for every year group!
You will need a box, which can be a cereal box, shoe box or equivalent. Choose your favourite book and decorate your box (inside and out) to represent the different parts of the book.
You could draw or cut out pictures of the characters or significant objects from the book.
You could recreate a scene from the book inside.
Include interesting quotes from the text.
Don’t forget to include the title and author of the book too.
Make it as colourful and exciting as you can.
For inspiration look at examples of books in boxes on Google “book in box project ideas”. Also Google “book in a box Southam Primary school” and they have some great ideas on their website too.
Label your box clearly with your name and year group and bring your box by Monday 26th of February for judging. Prizes will be awarded at our celebration of the week assembly on Friday 2nd March.
Get Creative!
Today each class had a special visit from Santa Claus and his helpers. All of the children were very happy to find out that they have made it on to the good list!
Merry Christmas
