• Firefighter Visit

  Mon 30 Jan 2023 Mrs Dolman

  Today, Reception had some very special visitors! The firefighters from Alfreton Community Fire Station came to talk to us all about how they help to keep us safe. We got to try on some of their equipment; use the hose and even got to go inside the fire engine! We told them lots of things we had learnt about the fire service- I think they were very impressed!

  

• Book and Biscuit

  Tue 17 Jan 2023 Mrs Dolman

  Reception had their first 'Book and Biscuit' session today! Thank you to all of the families who came along to share some books with their child. The children really enjoyed having the family members in school (and of course, getting a biscuit!) 

  

• Christmas Tree at St Leonard's Church

  Wed 11 Jan 2023

  We were invited to join several other schools and businesses in the area to support the first ever Christmas Tree Festival at St Leonard's Church. 

  The year 4 Forest School group with Mrs Rosochacki planned and produced decorations for the tree using natural materials or nature inspired designs. These were used to decorate a 6 foot tree at the Church which was illuminated throughout the Christmas period.

  We took the advice of the church who requested that the trees were bought with roots and will be planted in the school grounds in the new year.
