Breakfast with Santa, by Miss McCormack

Date: 11th Dec 2015 @ 7:46pm

This morning we were able to have breakfast with Santa! 

We joined year 4 and 5 to eat toast, crumpets and pain au chocolat. It was delicious! We then got to meet Santa and get a little present from him!

Thank you to the PTFA for organising this lovely event, we really enjoyed ourselves.

Year 3's Christmas Carol concert, by Miss McCormack

Date: 11th Dec 2015 @ 7:43pm

Yesterday the whole of year three performed for the entire school and for parents!

We have been practicing for weeks so it was fantastic to finally show off all the song, dance moves and readings which we have been rehearsing.

We hope you enjoyed our performance, it was an absolute pleasure!

Elf on a Shelf, by Miss McCormack

Date: 7th Dec 2015 @ 1:05pm

On Friday, we wrote a letter to Q1 because their elf had told us that they were all heading to being put on the naughty list!

After we had wrote our letter, our elf appeared! He told us how pleased he was with our efforts and asked us to write our Christmas lists for him to pass on to Father Christmas!

For the past couple of days we have been searching for our mischievous elf (who still hadn't shown up yet!) 

This morning we were greeted with even more clues from him! This time he had stolen Miss McCormack's car keys, been in our cupboard and been into our name box!

This afternoon we decided to leave the elf a little message, we told him that we have seen what he has been up to and that if he doesn't stop then we will have to report him to Father Christmas!

Check back tomorrow to see if the troublesome elf has arrived or left us a reply...

PE Captain, by Miss McCormack

Date: 2nd Dec 2015 @ 6:05pm

Our PE captain this week is Scarlett Latta. Mr Ward is always extremely impressed by Scarlett and decided that she is a well deserved captain. 

Mr Ward also selected a vice captain this week with my help, we decided that Morgan Sealeaf would be a fantastic vice captain because of his excellent teamwork throughout the lesson.

Well done to both Scarlett and Morgan!

This morning we came into school and found some more photographs of the elf but this time he had been in our classroom! 

The cheeky, little elf had been in Scarlett's bag, Yasmin's tray and had been drinking Miss McCormack's drink! So, we decided to write a letter to Father Christmas to tell him all about our naughty elf, we also asked him to help us by having a little chat with the elf to find out why he's being such a trouble maker!

Hopefully we will hear something back soon!

Today was a very exciting day at Queen's Park...

When Mr Westhead and I arrived this morning, we found a mysterious brown envelope addressed to P3 by the door. We decided to keep the envelope sealed until everybody came back from assembly and when we opened it we found a letter from Father Christmas! 

But, that is not all that we found...

We also discovered that there were some photographs inside which showed one of Father Christmas' elves in different places, he was even out on a date with Barbie! 

Throughout the day we thought of lots of questions about the elf, can he see us? What is he doing here? How did he get here? 

We also found out that Q3 got the same letter AND an elf was spotted by some of our children at lunch time!

Keep checking our blog through the week to see if we get any more letter or clues. Maybe the elf will even make an apperance...

Today Daniel and Lily both brought some items in to show the class.

Over the weekend, Daniel climbed Mount Snowdon! We have been learning lots about volcanoes over the past few weeks so it was fantastic for Daniel to show off the rocks he collected and talk about the experience. 

Lily brought in a scrapbook which was made when she was in nursery. It was lovely to see the photos and collages she made. We also spotted Charlie on one of the photos!
