Newsletter - Friday 9th January 2025
We’ve hit the ground running with a lovely (if a little cold!) first week back of the Spring term. We had a Welcome Back service with Rev Dom, Year 4 visited the Natural History Museum and PE and Performing Arts lessons have all re-commenced for the term.
Our Collective Worship theme of ‘Communication’ has begun for this half term, looking at people from the Old Testament with Abraham and Moses and how God communicated with them.
Our full newsletter is attached below, together with a refreshed diary dates sheet and lots of fliers regarding after school clubs, flu jabs, Y5 swimming and Soundstep music school. Below, as usual, is a small synopsis of events for the week ahead.
Wishing you and our whole community a lovely weekend
God bless, from the St. James’ team
