Update from last week

The week beginning 27th November was a very busy one. Thank you for all your donations to ‘Bags2School’ as this raises extra money for the PTA. Year 6 enjoyed lunch with their families. Becky and Ruth served a delicious roast dinner and everyone enjoyed their meal.

On Wednesday, 4 children from Red class competed in a gymnastics competition at Idsall school. They each had to perform a floor routine and a vault in front of judges. They all showed fantastic control and strength in all areas. Out of 10 teams that competed, Claverley team came a very well-deserved 1st place. We are all very proud of them, well done to Alice, Abigail, Evelyn H and Polly. Report by Mrs Richardson.

On Thursday, there was great excitement when the panto came to school. Chaplins Pantomime performed Cinderella and it was brilliant. The children were a fabulous audience and the actors commented on their great manners and participation. Thank you to our wonderful PTA for organising events and to of you who support them as this funded the performance which I know the children really enjoyed – ‘oh yes, they did!’

We have a great end to the week when we celebrate all the amazing achievements by the children.

Sally Beaman engaged several parents in her wreath making session which was very successful and raised £326 for the PTA. All of this money is so gratefully received back into school to benefit the children – thank you!

On Sunday, many of you went to the Christingle service and Garry really entertained us all as well as delivering the important message.

Thank you to members of the choir who came to sing after the service. There were so many appreciative comments. Thank you also to Arjun who switched the Christmas lights on along with Mrs Parr.
