Every term is busy, but as you can imagine this one is extremely busy! Our topic this term was 'Celebrations' and we have managed to learn a lot about different celebrations: Bonfire Night, Remembrance Day, Diwali, Children in Need, Thanksgiving, Hannukah and of course Christmas. The children loved learning about why people celebrate these special times of the year.
Our Nativity play this year was 'Christmas in a toy shop' the toys came to life and found a nativity scene in the window of the shop and the toys retell the Christmas story. So our nativity had clowns, jumping jacks, dollies, trains, a bear, a rabbit and an angel. Fortunately there was still room for Mary, Joseph, shepherds and kings which were played by the youngest members of our class - Little Wrens. Such a lot of work went into the play and the children never fail to astonish me with their ability to remember all their lines and there were certainly some characters in the play that had a lot of lines to learn. Well done everyone!
We finished off the term with a delicious Christmas dinner, carol concert and of course the class Christmas party that had everyone dancing!
Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
