Christmas comes to Harewood

 Phew! Christmas is finally here - and what a hectic final day of term we had. Santa found a window in his busy schedule to call in and give out gifts to everyone that has been good this year.

 Santa was heard to say that he was very impressed with how the children had behaved - so looks like we might be in for a bumper year!

 The children also put the finishing touches to their Christmas gifts and cards. We all agreed they looked very professional - especially the Christmas cakes in Class 2 which would make Betty's jealous!

 The day started with our Nativity performance. The choir were in fine voice. The soloists were particularly impressive - it is not an easy thing to stand up in front of such a large audience and sing. Well done everyone!

 The Reception children were brilliant in their Nativity roles. They all enjoyed taking part in re-telling the Christmas story.

Merry Christmas everyone! Have a fantastic holiday and we'll see you in 2013!

Den Building

A fantastic time was had by everyone that took part in Wednesday's den building workshop. Chris showed us the importance of teamwork and co-operation. We had a great time playing in our completed dens. What a shame we had take them down again so soon!

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz

This week the children in Class 2 have been performing their Autumn Term production which this year is an adaptation of the Wizard of Oz.

Dorothy and Toto set out on their amazing adventure.."Oh my goodness where am I?"

The Lion,Tinman and Scarecrow made a great team on their way to the Emerald city to meet the Wizard of Oz. "We're off to see the Wizard...follow the yellow brick road"

But first they had to cross the field of Poppies. Don't be fooled by their sweet innocent faces, they are working for the Wicked King!

The Wicked King is determined to get the Ruby Slippers from Dorothy. He is prepared to go to any lengths to get them. "Those Ruby slippers belong to me!"

They also need to get past the Bouncers and the Wizards Helpers before they can see the Wizard of Oz. "You can't come in, you're not on the guest list, now GO AWAY!"

Luckily for Dorothy the Good King is on hand to give her all the good advice she needs to get back to Kansas...there's no place like home, there's no place like home.....
