Jack and the Beanstalk

Went along to The Lincoln Drill Hall's pantomime again this year and was not disappointed!!   See: www.lincolndrillhall.com

(Although Daddy was convinced all the way through they were going to get him on stage as we were so near the front!  Unfortunately for Jamie, they didn't)

Christmas at School

They didn't have a 'Christmas' production but Jamie was asked to read the following as part of the Key Stage 1 play:  Just as they arrived in Bethlehem Mary knew that her baby was to be born - but there was no room for them in any of the inns.  Eventually, all they were offered was a stable and that is where the Son of God was born.  There was no lovely silk lined cot, only a manger full of hay with animals standing  around. Mary and Joseph did what the Angel had told them and named the baby Jesus.

Year 3/ 4 had a 'Vicious Vikings' celebration at the end of term as that has been the term topic.  They told Viking inspired stories, did song Viking dances and showed off their textile work (Jamie still had his pins in his!).  Not very Christmassy - even if they were in their Christmas jumpers!
