Advent
Thank you to everyone who has contributed to the Caritas Advent Calendar donations. The donations are really appreciated.
Thank you to all the children who competed the Advent Actions over the last couple of weeks. . A huge thanks to those of you who emailed the office a picture of your child performing an act of kindness at home. We will be continuing this until Christmas if you would like to email your picture in.
Homework
We would love to hear how you celebrate Christmas. What are your cultural and family traditions? It would be great if you could bring in a photograph and talk to your child about this so they can share it with us at school in January.
