Choir – Christmas events

Can all choir members please complete and return the permission slips by tomorrow for all the upcoming events this month.  Unfortunately if slips are not returned they will not be able to join us which will be a shame as they have all been working really hard to learn all the songs.

I have also asked the children to bring in Christmas themed hats to wear for these events.

Many thanks,

Mrs Thomas

Towards the end of this week we will be doing some maths work on multiplication. It is therefore a good time for your child to practise and learn their times tables at home, as this will help them in our lessons. Children will be rewarded in class for their efforts at home.
