On Thursday Year 1 took a day out of the classroom to enrich their Space studies with a fantastic visit to The National Space Centre.  Their news and photos will be in the next newsletter.

Well done to Tom and Cerys who had their road safety poster designs made into real outdoor road signs this week.

As part of Brake's Road Safety Week, we were visited by Kier who work with West Northamptonshire Highways.  They set the children in Key Stage 2 a challenge to design a road safety poster.  The competition prize was their design to be made into a custom road sign for the school and a smaller version for them to keep.

Well done to all the children who took part, Kier found it very difficult to select the winners as your posters were so good.  Kier has gifted all the children in Key Stage 2 with a token of thanks, including reflective keyrings and pens.

Mrs Davis coordinated the whole school in a wonderful Christmas art project. 

Every child helped to create a Snowman Nativity Shepherd with each class contributing to the final result! The children had immense fun making their art and checking on the progress over the last month.

Our magnificent Monksmoor Park snowman is on display in the Holy Cross Church, Daventry from Saturday 25th November until our school breaks up for Christmas. 

Holy Cross Church will be open 11am-2pm on Saturday 25th Nov. for the Daventry Christmas Fayre where you are very welcome. Pop along if you can!

Save the date in your diary to come and support or to volunteer at our Christmas Fayre!

Stalls are available to hire for £10 per table.  Enquiries should be made with Gemma Burton.  You can contact Gemma by email gemma.t91@googlemail.com

Thank you for your donations to Children in Need, we raised £194.00. The money you have raised will be used to help change the lives of children and young people facing disadvantage in communities across the UK.

Have you Nativity costumes at home that your children no longer use?  Do you have a spare Nativity costume available to loan to another child?

We have two events using Nativity costumes in the next few weeks: our EYFS Nativity Plays and the Years 1 and 2 outdoor crib service.

If you have any Nativity costumes or accessories that would be suitable to loan to or donate to school for our children in Nursery to Year 2 please drop them into Mrs Ellison or Miss Hornett.  If you are loaning something to us please remember to label it so it can be returned to you after the events in December.
