• KS2 Carol concert

  Mon 15 Dec 2014
  Congratulations to all our Key Stage 2 children who performed beautifully in their Christmas concert in the church of Our Lady this evening. The Nativity story was narrated by a  Newscaster & two reporters. Children in costume helped  portay the events and all the children showed off their fantastic singing voices in a range of traditional and modern carols! The school orchestra led the singing for some of the carols (a premier performance for some of our adult members).
  Thank you for all your hard work children!
