The most important way to support your child at home is through reading. We expect each child to read for a minimum of 10 minutes a day. If you have time, try to read with your child and ask them questions about the story they are reading. This quality, dedicated time set aside to reading has a huge impact on children's learning across the curriculum and helps develop a love of reading which can last a lifetime.
Please sign your child's reading record each day.

Year 3 Christmas Hymn for Carol Concert
Here you can find the song- Shine by Angie Killian: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYZdzGkurZI&list=RDVYZdzGkurZI&start_radio=1
Lyrics below:
When staring at the starry sky
That winks and blinks within the night
I wonder if I see the light
That marked the Savior's birth
That light once led the wisest men
To find the Babe of Bethlehem
Does it still shine as it did then
And emblem to the earth?
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
Shine for all the world!
The Baby born so long ago
Who dreamed beneath that brilliant glow
Was sent to earth so all could know
The source of love and hope
Yes, Jesus is the guiding light
The star that leads through darkest night
He shines for us, so pure and bright
To bring us safely home
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
Shine for all the world!
I'll shine His light, His light that shines in me
(It shines in me)
I'll shine so bright, so all the world can see
(I'll shine so all can see)
I'll shine His light, His light that shines in me
(I'll shine His light; it shines in me)
I'll shine so bright, so all the world can see Him
(I'll shine so all can see Him)
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
Shine for all!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
Shine for all the world!
Shine
