The day began with a spectacular assembly packed full of fascinating science experiments. Children watched in amazement as a lemon erupted, tried to work out the secret behind a mysterious leaking bottle and even discovered how it is possible to step through a single piece of paper!

The whole school gathered to enjoy a lively and entertaining performance packed with humour, colourful characters and classic pantomime fun. From cheering and clapping to joining in with the traditional “it’s behind you!”, the children were fully engaged from start to finish. The performers did a fantastic job of making the show interactive and inclusive, ensuring that every year group felt part of the experience.

We are incredibly proud to share that around 40% of the school did not miss a single day this term, demonstrating fantastic commitment, resilience and enthusiasm for learning. All pupils who achieved 100% attendance were rewarded with 15 house points each, recognising their outstanding effort. Their names were then entered into a prize draw using a spinning wheel, building excitement across the school. The wheel stopped on one lucky pupil, who was awarded an Amazon voucher as this term’s attendance winner.

Polina has been announced as the winner of the Diocese Nativity Card Competition! Her beautifully designed card impressed the judges with its creativity, originality and clear connection to the Nativity story.

Many classes also had the chance to get hands-on with Indian cuisine, making fresh chapatis under the guidance of helpful parent volunteers, who contributed to the day’s success. Other pupils worked on rangoli-style art, crafting beautiful, symmetrical designs inspired by traditional Indian patterns. The school extends its heartfelt thanks to all the parent helpers who participated, bringing a rich cultural experience to life and making the day memorable for everyone involved.
