Getting ready for Christmas!

This Friday morning, we are holding our annual Christmas Technology activity day where the children will be bringing home three Christmas decorations for display at home!

In the afternoon from 3.00, POWSA have organised their Christmas Fair with tombolas, raffles, craft stalls, Father Christmas and lots more festive fun!

Design Technology competition deadline!

Just a reminder that the Design Technology competition for making a tree decoration is this THURSDAY 11th December. 

Please bring the decorations to the hall in the morning. We will judge during break time and present our awards in assembly that day!

Thank you!

Christingle A Christian Festival of Light

Today's assembly was about the Christingle as a festival of light. the children were asked to think about what the sweets represent: all the special and lovely things in our life.

Next week, we shall be looking at Hanukkah, the Jewish festival of light.

Some people pray in one way, some in another, some don't pray at all....

Today Mr Farrington showed the children some objects used by people from different faiths to help them to pray. We talked about the different places of worship that exist in the UK, including a mosque and a mandir in Bolton where Mr Farrington grew up.  We saw lots of photos of children and adults praying. We also agreed that not everyone prays, and that everyone has a responsibility to respect other people's beliefs.

Musicianship skills required for our Carols at end of term!

For the last couple of year now we have a strong, super team of 'grown ups!' who have pitched up with their instruments on Friday 19th December to play along with some simple Christmas carols whilst the school and parents sing along! The live music really does help bring the feeling of Christmas and community side by side!

If you are able to help reignite this group again/ add to this group then PLEASE let me know your willingness either via email c.mewett@princeofwales.dorset.sch.uk or via the school office! Beginners welcome, or rusty players like myself, it is actually a cathartic experience!!

CHOIR notice...

We have two concerts which we are signed up for us this Christmas! The first is on Tuesday 16th December at THS, children need to be there by 5.30pm, the evening will consist of groups within DASP coming together. I have issued letters for this so if your child would like to do it then please come along! You will need to contact DASP Music office ASAP to get a ticket though, I hear they are going very quickly!

Secondly, the last day of term, Friday 19th December, the school joins together to sing carols in the school hall from just before 3pm. The choir will be singing three songs to the whole school, again, please come along to support them!

Any questions, do not hesitate to contact me.
