• Carol Concert

  Wed 18 Dec 2013

  On one of the stormiest evenings of the year, lots of families braved the elements to come along to the year Two Carol Concert. All afternoon the wine had been mulling in readiness for the Year Two children's seasonal sing-song.
  
  The evening began with the a few rousing carols played by the superb Broadstone Community Band. Then it was the turn of the children, who entertained the crowd with poetry and Christmassy Songs and also accompanied Mr Cole and Mrs Gdesis in a fantastic rendition of Hallelujah.
  
  Thank you to everyone who came along and supported this lovely event. We must also thank the many members of staff who gave up their time to prepare.
  
  A very merry Christmas from all of the Year Two staff.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

  

• Reception Dazzle

  Tue 17 Dec 2013
  Today saw the Reception classes perform their Christmas Production 'Christmas Recipe' to their parents in two performances.
  They did exceedingly well and the audience were enthralled by their superb singing, dazzling dancing, amazing acting and wonderful words.
  
  
  Here is an email we received from some Grandparents following their viewing of Monday's dress rehearsal...
  
  Yesterday we had the great pleasure of watching our grandson in 'A Christmas Recipe'. We were very proud of him but the reason for writing is to let you know how much we appreciated all the hard work put in by Mrs Elliott, Mrs Marsh, Mrs Gdesis and all the teaching assistants. To see 90 very young children all enjoying themselves and being so well behaved was a real privilege. Very well done to everyone. We hope you all have a happy and restful Christmas. Kind regards
  George and Beryl Salmon

• Carols

  Thu 12 Dec 2013

  The school choir were asked to sing at the recent community 'Carols at the Clocktower' event in Upton. We sang some of our favourites and joined in with the more traditional carols alongside parents and the rest of the community.
  
  The choir also sang to the parents on the playground to add a bit of festive flair to the end of term.

• Upton Poetry Competition

  Mon 02 Dec 2013

  Congratulations to Eleisha McArthur, Logan Wilson and David Lock who represented the school at the annual Upton Schools Poetry Competition. They each individually performed a 'Firework' themed poem in front of a panel of judges, parents and headteachers. The Yarrells School library was a fitting location for the event and the teas and cakes afterwards were very well received! All three of our pupils read their poems with great confidence and received a special certificate for their efforts. David's performance was judged to be 2nd overall and he was pleased to be awarded a £10 gift voucher.
