Dear Parents and Carers

Christmas Service

Thank you to everyone who came to our Church service yesterday – it was a lovely way to end the term. The simple messages expressed by the children of a baby in a manger surrounded by people who loved him is something to remember. In this fast paced, ever-changing world it is often the most important messages that are missed. I talked yesterday about giving gifts of kindness, love and happiness and in return we might receive much of the same thing – I love a free gift! If you didn’t join us yesterday and you would like to listen to words of the song that held so much for me the other day on the way to work, ask one of your devices for “A little love” by Celeste.

Take a board game selfie!

Technology can be an amazing thing and the ability to ask the Alexa to play just about any kind of music has been life changing! This Christmas, I would like you to join us and put down all that technology that you asked Father Christmas for and get out an old-fashioned board game. Yes, Monopoly, Uno, a family game of charades (okay not quite a board game but you get the idea). Our mission this Christmas is to get us all talking again, in one room. Give up your phone, switch off the TV and have some fun. We are going to make a display of all the games you played so take lots of pictures and overload Mrs Strick’s inbox this Christmas by sending a photo, or two or three!

Mrs Strick is off to play Monolpoly with her own family.

Year 2 Great Fire of London visit

Samuel Pepys popped in to Year 2 this week to talk to the children all about the Great Fire of London. The children had a great time consolidating all of their knowledge and having so much fun too. Samuel Pepys was very impressed!

Attendance

All the staff of St Mary’s would like to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and we will look forward to seeing you on Tuesday 7 January 2025.

Kind regards
Mrs McQueen
