Message from Mrs Birch

Christmas has most certainly arrived at Galley Hill this week! We hope that all parents and carers who came to watch the Reception performances have loved them as much as I did. I felt very emotional seeing our youngest children perform their songs so beautifully. Thank you so much to all involved. I must say another enormous THANK YOU to Miss Reardon who organised our Christmas Craft event on Wednesday. She spent much of her own time putting together this opportunity for our children and we are incredibly grateful.  We also had the wonderful West End for Schools come in to present the Pantomime Dick Whittington and his Cat which the children thoroughly enjoyed.

Wednesday 11th December

The Christmas fun continues next week, including next Wednesday which is our Christmas dinner in school. Additionally, we are holding our annual Christmas jumper day which is an event that is just for fun and there is no cost involved. Children can choose to wear a Christmas jumper, t-shirt or dress with their usual school uniform. Finally on that day, the whole school will be having Christmas Musical Showcase with each class performing a Christmas song for the rest of the school. We are very much looking forward to holding this super Christmassy day with the children.

Value of the Month

Our value for the month of December is, very aptly, ‘thankfulness’. We will be talking about what it means to be thankful for all that we have and show gratitude. We will be grateful if you could also reinforce these messages at home.
