Christmas has certainly arrived at Prendergast C.P..Our Foundation Phase classes have been rehearsing for their production of Baubles, performances are scheduled for next week. There is a genuine excitement around the place as soon as the stage is in place. 

Classes in Reception to Year 6 have had the opportunity to visit The Torch Theatre in order to watch the production of Pinocchio. I am always grateful for the way in which parents support us with such events - from the donations they give to the respectful waiting for children to exit buses/ the building in a safe manner. Everyone had a great time.

Today, the children in 3R led our community assembly with purposeful messages for Christmas time - clearly prompting us to appreciate our luxuries at Christmas but to also think about those less fortunate , cross the world and more locally. 

The week has ended with almost one hundred children enjoying a Christmas Craft afternoon with their parents. My thanks to all the members of staff who led this event and to all the parents who participated.

Well Done to our VIPs / Readers and Writers of the Week !! Super work.

Remember diary dates for next week - performances, parties on Wednesday, music afternoon on Thursday.
