When I think of Christmas….

 

Well done to our amazing worship leaders for writing and leading our act of worship in church this morning! We learnt about the Christmas story through visitors, journeys, messages and presents.  Thank you for bring home the real meaning of Christmas.

Head teacher’s update

This has been a week that has made me incredibly proud to be part of such a wonderful school community.  Key Stage 1 performed a wonderful play, The Innspectors and kept us all very entertained with their singing, dancing and comedy.  The play also reminded us of the true meaning of Christmas.  Our Key Stage 2 Carol Service was truly wonderful and allowed  calm and peaceful reflection during this very busy season.  Today, our Worship Leaders led a fabulous service for us, in church.  The service gave us a lovely reminder of the true meaning of Christmas.  Well done and thank you to all of our children, from reception to year 6, who have participated so well in our Christmas events over the last few weeks.  We thoroughly enjoyed joining in with the Dudley Performing Arts Christmas sing-a-long today, too.

We sadly say goodbye and good luck to Mrs Walley, today.  We are extremely grateful to Mrs Walley for her unrelenting service to the school.  The dedication and compassion that she has shown to our whole school community is very much appreciated and will be missed greatly.  We know that Mrs Walley will continue to thrive in her new role and we wish her all the very best at her new school.

On behalf all of the staff, I wish you all a wonderful Christmas and look forward to seeing you on the 5th January, in the new year.

Collective worship

We lit our final candle on the advent wreath, this week. This week’s candle symbolised welcoming peace, in this busy season.  We reflected on how we may currently not be feeling very peaceful, with all the excitement of elves on shelves and advent calendars with a variety of surprises in them.  Taking a little time to consider what peace means to us, and what peace means to Christians around the world, provided the opportunity for thought and reflection.  We considered the peace and the faith that the angels brought, to Mary, Joseph and the shepherds and all that the angels represent, at this time of year. During the week, we have reflected on who and what brings peace to our lives and how we can bring peace to others.

Loving God,​
In this season of hope, calm our hearts and quiet our minds.​
Bring peace where there is conflict, courage where there is fear,​
and rest where there is unrest.​

May Your peace fill our lives and flow into the world.​
Amen.

Wellbeing Buddies

Our wellbeing buddies have had their final meeting of the year and have decided on a new focus for the next term which is ‘giving’.  We reflected on our successes from this term and have made some great suggestions for next term.  Well done, Buddies!
Also in the new term, our wellbeing buddies will be working with our new educational mental health practitioner, Hayley, for some training in their important role.  We will introduce Hayley officially to all children and parents in the new term – exciting times!
